I saw a coupe in Bellflower, CA more than a year ago that had a blood red "plastic wrap" finish. Best looking thing I had ever seen.

 

real quick......how much does getting a paint job in a exotic color cost? anyone know????

 

BMW's Chrome Shadow paint, i can actually get it for you also

 

my quotes were around 10k for show quality spray job.

Though i have my ideas for a custom job, if i go that route I'll be married to shows,have to secure a daily driver, additional insurance. for me may not be worth it.

ppp

 

So that chrome look is just paint? I thought it was like a chrome body not just painted..

 

haha very creative ideas...ive actually thought of metallic and pearl black, or a metallic baby blue...hmm this is gonna make my decision even harder when the time comes lol...keep em comin =)

 

after you've decided somewhat on a color think about the process. for instance a white base and pink color would stand out more then a grey base. Also im unaware if they place the metallic comps in a layer of clear or in the paint. also metallic base coats. tons of new applications equally as impressive as the array of paint choices.additionally ive heard about a protective acrylic coating, where you will never need to wax again and it protects the paint... at the cost of a rough feel.

next up perhaps a color changing paint such as mirage duplicolor paint system (perhaps they make this in a commercial application). lol why settle for one color when you can have two !

the chrome car looked awesome ! how about a black chrome paint job !

anyways good luck on your choice, post some pics when you complete the transformation !

ppp

look what i found !

Thank me later

 

HAHAH... just carry a fire extinguisher in your car. Get chased by the cops, get a decent lead, pull into a parking garage, spray the car down and voila!

 

10 K???? that is crazy!!!!!! so your saying that about the 1/3 of our cars price is the paint job? helllllllllllll no -.-

 

OH MY GOD, what a sick idea! A Black chrome or pearl OMGGGGGG.... Sort of like a ceramic gloss black or something, it would be insaneeeeee

 

the thing is, ive never actually seen a black pearl or black metallic in real life so i cant really say how much of a difference itll make to the original black...i dont wanna be painting the car for nuthin ya know :P

 

my freind that owns a shop painted a black car with blue pearl and it looked awesome, like a really dark blue but up close you could see it was black with blue pearl, a real nice touch, Ive got red with blue pearl on my maxima, which gets alot of compliments, the only thing is its alot of work to change the color (correctly) I would suggest staying with the stock black and adding a pearl on top of it.

 

this color right here...
