dannysupratt Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Hi everyone my car is going in for a full respray soon as i get back off holiday. It is a standard uk spec with 19"s and will be sat quite low and at the moment is storm blue. I just cant think which colour will suit it best. Can anyone come up with some suggestions,pics would be great cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merckx Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Stock Gunmetal or RSP, these will make the car look original and modern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean1933 Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Not blue ...because that what im having in a few weeks. Dark gunmetal was my close second choice, looks awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannysupratt Posted January 3, 2008 Author Share Posted January 3, 2008 cheers guys, i did think about leaving it the stock colour but its not going to cost me any extra to change the colour so it just got me thinking as you do:). Its about 1500 dude but i am doing some of the work with the bloke as i know him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a Supe has had this done (maybe in the US), but it wouldn't look right IMHO. I considered doing mine this colour but in the end decided it was outdated (plus the fact that the paint worked out at something ridiculous like £500 per litre).

Lukeyboy2k Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 http://www.chromepaint.com/product/prism_finish similar colour for 250 a litre! Yep - fair play. I was researching this about 18 months ago. I'd still flinch at paying that for 1 litre though. I suppose if I was paying a professional with guaranteed results I wouldn't mind, but when I was looking into it I had the intention of performing a DIY paint job (which I eventually did). I think the primer, paint (including pearl) and clearcoat cost me about £150 all in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, no, but any Nissan dealer should be able to tell you, it's used on the new (ish) 350Z. Chrysler Jeep used a VERY similar colour on N to sort of P reg Grand Cherokees. My customer has sold the car, I'd have loved to see a MKIV in that colour, I think it would have looked very classy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
