Super black vs obsidian black?
 
I picked up one of those Nissan paint pens to fill in a chip in my mirror when my gf drove my car and slammed the mirror into the side of my garage a few years ago :/ (yes, I"m only now getting around to fixing it, lol)

Anyways, the paint pen says 'SUPER BLACK' on it. Not Obsidian black. I pointed that out to the service guy, but he said it's the same thing. However, I do not trust him. No point arguing since he was the only 1 there, maybe check back on Monday. Anybody here know if super black is the same as obsidian black :confused:

if not mistaken the pain code is on the drivers side doors something like that, give him the code and see what he says, before u go also check online

internet research says that is true. But does super black on 350z = obsidian black on g35 ....supposedly they have the same paint code, but I still don't trust the dealership :/

the 350 z color is a high metallic black

our g 35 OB is a non-metallic color

Super black is a Nissan color but it is definately for the Maxima's and Altima's. Not sure if there is a difference in the color besides the name but I know the color super black was used on my old maxima. Good luck!

as long as it says KH3 you are fine

ebony350 04-27-2007 02:00 PM

Super black = KH3
Obsedian Black = KH3

Your friends Z is not Super Black, it is Magnetic Black which does not = KH3 ;)


2003-2005 350Z's = KH3 or Super Black (no metallic) same as Obsedian Black

2006-2007 350Z's = Magnetic Black ( has metallic)

^^good info!

I agree though, the G would look much better with a metallic black paint.

I know this is an old thread, but I was thinking about putting some magnetic black greddy sideskirts on my 04 obsidian black coupe. It says here that they're the same color
http://www.350z-tech.com/zwiki/Magnetic_Black_(Color)
but I am currently under the impression that super black = obsidian black, so you guys think it would look bad on my g?

People People People... let's not be insensitive.. Super African American, Obsidian African American, or Magnetic African American.. it's all the same :p
