I'll let you know how it comes out A few have done it already on this site.

Paint the calipers yourself man...its easy. They are going to charge you labor when all it costs is like $10 and a little bit of your time.

 

just a thought,
since the headlamps are out I am thinking about taking the headlamps apart and paint the frame gloss black.

 

hey man i'm working on my own garnet fire sedan a little.

I painted my grill black, i'll post up some pics tomorrow for you it looks really good

 

hmm, no comment on my posts?

 

Hmmm I hadn't thought much about it but that makes sense. You need something to protect that shiny new paint anyway.

 

I thanked you on the first page before you posted anything. I am really grateful for the new pic! I was wondering if maybe you could do just one more, with the lights normal and the mirror bases and door handles color matched and of course the roof black? If not, thankyou for all your help!

 

Don't question it Smoke.......just do it!

 

yea today I had to take care of another prisoner all freaking day! I totally forgot to get the headlamps when I was there. DOAH!

 

so how did it turn out?

Well the painter said he will sand it a little then put an eching fluid on it then clean it and then paint it with primer then the paint. Hope that helps.

 

Smoke - Interesting rear bumper you found on ebay...I think I like it! So when will all of the mods & painting be complete? I'm very anxious to see the final product (though probably not as anxious as you)!

 

that is the new Nismo Aero bumper for the Front. At the time of the picture there was no room to set it down in front of the car.

Oh yes I am very eager to get it back! Tonight I will post the pics of the new paintjob. They still have to paint the mirror bases, somehow there was miscomunication. Tomorrow they will be buffing out the paint. So tell me if this sounds good, they put three layers of clear on it.

side note, after work today I am going there to paint the calipers gold while the wheels are off and I will paint the headlamp shrouds black at home. Tomorrow the car will be put back together and finished!

 

liez! I need to see proof! Pics

Sitting around waiting for pics

 

Hey Tire Smoke you could spray the calipers the color of the car with the extra paint.

 

alright all I am soooo sorry about the pics! I am loading them up to photobucket right now! I think you will all be very pleased with the progress! I know I am! check again in like 30 minutes! note my time here in GA is 1131 pm....................

 

alright today I was told they will be putting the car back together tomorrow. So I took G35Papas advice and mod my headlamps and my calipers while the wheels wher off today. I was at the shop for 5 hours. So here are the pics! enjoy!
