Painting the G !!

So after this winter, I'm painting the G! it's OB right now and i haatee that i can see every single little scratch on the car and all the swirls.

I'm thinking of going with Bayside Blue (Skyline R-34 Color), love the way it looks.

Do you guys have any other suggestions of what color to go with?

Thanks!

I dont know what it is but I think white looks best on ANY vehicle I wanted mine white but Im not sure what white does the Infiniti use. Also it would cost a fortune to get it done.

when you guys are repainting the car, how much are you guys thinking to spend? are all the door jam going to be painted as well? do you guys think that it will be ugly is a silver car repainted white w/o painting the door jam?

To do it right it will cost you a fortune......just do the same color again, make sure the shop removes the bumpers,and sprays off the car...I see too many short cuted cars getting sent to my shop for resprays

right now the car is pretty stock on the exterior besides the few mods that i've done.i'm lowered on eibach sportlines, rims and also de-badget the car.

After painting it, if i go with the blue, i was going to paint the grille black, tint the tails, black out my headlights, new rims, kurookie or nismo rep bumper, ionic nismo rear lip and some new side skirts.

Obviously not all at one time but thats the plan i have for the exterior.
