I prefer platinum ice color. It makes G cars brighter and sharper !

Every body and their little sister has a silver coupe, look around! IP is one of the best colors ever offered on our G35s. P/C your wheels don't go flat black have it done semi gloss, you need a little bling....Gary

Even if your car got fully keyed, I don't see them painting the jams and engine bay. A respray (same colour) is alot cheaper than a whole new custom color. Is your insurance company making you pay for the difference out of pocket?

If not, who are you with? I need to get my insruance through them

Professional collision in Garden Grove! They do a great job! My buddy was offering to powder coat my rims, paint the grill, tint the lights, but i changed my mine I want it stock for now! Ill customize it slower. He also hooked me up with the deductible. Let me know

Platinum ice is white silver isnt it? Im keeping the wheels the same color. I hate how poeder coated wheels look. Getting 20's in the near future. Thanks for the advice!

I also think Lambo white would be cool, but the platinum ice is also. If you decide to get the rims painted, I'd go with gloss black, not matte. But in the end, it is your car, not ours!
