Paint job opinions please. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

240sxdrifterS14 · 03-31-2008, 09:37 PM

So my car used to look like the first pic after I wrecked it a few months ago and I got tired of it being 4 different colors so I went out and bought some spray paint. I like the way that the black came out but I'm trying to decided whether I want to leave the stripe or paint over it and keep it all black. So what do you guys think? You think it makes it look really ricy or does it look alright?

landins13 · 03-31-2008, 09:39 PM

ill have pics up tomorrow, but i'm in the process of painting my s13 in an urban camo. its kind of a temporary thing until i can get into the paint shop but its fun.

Jgrand03 · 03-31-2008, 09:42 PM

when i first saw the stripes it reminded me of this just way tackier

but i think you should take them off and save up some cash for a real paint job

Deftec · 03-31-2008, 09:43 PM

Carina240sx · 03-31-2008, 09:44 PM

nismo240sxdrifter · 03-31-2008, 09:52 PM

Do all of you guys think his paint or his vinyl looks bad, cause personally I think his paint looks amazing for spray paint but yah dude I'm not crazy bout the stripe.

rowdogg03 · 03-31-2008, 10:03 PM

I dont wanna be a dick.. but the thread is asking for opinions and that shit is homo.. it looks like the F&F guys..

Stripes FTL

But for real all black would look clean..

imnotmatt1189 · 03-31-2008, 10:08 PM

all black. the stripes, no offense, look like shit.

CSil80 · 03-31-2008, 10:14 PM

I like how well the stripe you did came out.
It looks tacky, but well done.

Now if we're talking real paint job here, take it off. Keep it one nice clean color.

ByeByeSti · 03-31-2008, 10:27 PM
