Show me some mod'd Desert Platinum Sedans

Hey all,

I recently purchased an 03 sedan that is kinda silver and kinda beige. I'm not sure what that color will look like mod'd and would like to see a few. The traditional colors always look good, white, black silver etc. but this color is a little different.

Thanks!

the color is called Desert Platinum.

I will upload some pics on Monday or Tuesday after I am done with some paint work.

That looks nice! Chrome might be the way to go. I'm trying to decide on the spoiler type and wheel type.

I like gun metal or hyper dark finishes for the DP (desert platinum).

I have Ruff 277 19's, i love 'em. They compliment the car color really well, and get looks and compliments all the time.

If I were you I would order OEM Nissan clear side markers immediately, they are cheap and improve looks a lot. I'll post a pic of my front end tonight.

After sides and rear are painted I will give the full 360

that masking tape makes me think blue overlays would look good on the DP sedan.

I have been thinking about going with blue overlays all around tails, heads, and sides, and then doing blue accents in the interior and painting calipers blue. i think it would look good on DP

I recently post this pic, but it's the color you are looking for.

What did it cost you to have your sills etc painted to match the car? Also, what did it cost you for the lip spoiler and to have it painted? I'm considering a spoiler and am leaning toward the lip version vs the stock version. Although the lip spoiler is considerably more expensive.

Not sure if you're asking me or the guy with the WALD kit , but it cost me $300 to get the STOCK side sills, rear lip, and front lip done. Just make sure you get someone who can mix paint VERY VERY WELL. Our color is VERY hard to matche because of the base color PLUS the metallic flakes. Mine isn't perfect, but I plan on repainting the whole car black sooner or later.
