Painting center panel

[Chew Slice]

The title basically says it all.  I  was just thinking about getting my center panel painted the same colour as my car.  I wanted to see what you guys think about doing this.  Im not too sure if it will look good or not.  If anyone has pics I'd like to see em, thanx.  Oh by the way, my tailights are just stock 240, not the 180sx ones.

s13cruzer: What's the specs on those rims?

Anyhow, prolly looks more distinct if the outside of your car isn't black <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'> Seen it, not bad, depends on the color of the car and how much you impliment the color in the cockpit. Make sure you use several coats and mebbe some clear finish to help protect it. WeST did this in his first s13 iirc, looks pretty good.

Yeah i think I'll probably go ahead and do it. &nbsp;My car is that stock sky blue colour, almost silver and my interior is color matched as well. &nbsp;Thanx for the input and pics.

DO IT, I did over the summer and it looks SOOOO good, I get compliments all the time. &nbsp;Just make sure to prep it really well, or else it will look like crap.

silvia14, is that a BOSE radio I see in the picture? because I swear it is the same one I had in my old Maxima.

Misnomer(sp) , the specs on the rims are 17x7 , 42 offset , they are good rims if you want that"other than stock" look , let me know if you're interested.

p.s. plus i don't think you can beat the price anywhere...hehehe <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>
