Ecosteve Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Afternoon folks, im considering painting my supra, current paint is tired and not looking its best. My plan is to go for the same gunmetal grey my r32 is painted (oem nissan colour). What non oem colours have others done? Im also considering a dark purple or maybe white, far too much choice . The supra will have oem bumpers and skirts when painted also. Added some pics of the supra and Skybus for colour idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 What colour does the VIN plate say? A pearl or metallic version of the factory colour (unless it came out of the factory in common silver) would be commensurate with stocking up on the bumper and skirts front.

Ecosteve Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 Its 3L2 paint code i believe (off the top of my head) i like the factory look with added splitter and despoiler, it won't staying red though, the bumper is a bad copy and ruins the car for me. The grey is metallic gunmetal grey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecosteve Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 I should say the cars not oem so im not painting it to add value in that way, started as a NA 5 speed, now is GTE with a BMW 420G Getrag. Soon to get a precision 6266 aiming for around 600hp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ecosteve Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 How is the 420G box? I've bought one, going in my na/5 next monthIts ok took some messing about at first but now im happy with it. They are a notchy feeling box. Mine has a short shifter im going to replace with oem to try improve the notchy feel. But it seems quite happy so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
