What color are you going to paint it?

scheistermeister 02-24-05 02:48 AM

looks extremely blocky now...

SleeperRX7 02-25-05 03:35 PM

We're painting it Kandy apple Red...Or 350z Bronz orange color. Haven't quite decided yet. It has turned the car farely blocky, but oh well.

oh man, no red please...
I'd love to see it in a much darker version of the 350z orange/bronze.
I'm sure it'll look great, those are wide wheels indeed... what sizes front/rear?

BenzaLee 02-25-05 07:11 PM

Wow that looks awesome:) What wheels and tires are you running?

RX7-2JOCK 02-25-05 08:22 PM

Looking good!! Love the rims...

1RevvinFC3S 02-27-05 03:09 PM

I've got a suggestion on the color. If you don't like it, then no problem. How about some metallic silver base, followed by a few coats dark gray metallic, and top it off with about 5 coats or pearlescant clear?

SSR SP1 Professors 18*12 rear and i think 18*10 front.I wanted those wheels.

SleeperRX7 02-27-05 06:23 PM

Yup their SP-1's, I heard that they are discontinuing those rims though. I can't really make up my mind with the paint right now and will probably figure it out when they get to that point.

don't paint it super glossy. anything that has that wide of body should have the power to back it up, which means it should be driven, which means you will get rock chips and such. i think it would look awesome if you painted it satin white with a very slight hint of blue. you have to really look close to see that its blue.

holy widebody batman

looks nice!

SleeperRX7 02-27-05 09:08 PM

Vice, I have put that in mind as well while building this car and really am not to worried about it. I was planning on putting it in a good amount of car shows after it is finished and then will be using it as a street car again. I just can't wait to get it out of the shop to get back to racing all the trash talkin ricers and v8's.

SAiamNE 02-27-05 09:15 PM

I think just black would look pretty nice.
Might help remove some of the "block syndrom" it's going through right now.. haha
