So you are painting the entire car, and leaving all the CF unpainted?

Well, CF is BADAS$.........BUT just cause it looks sweet, doesn't mean it looks sweet on everything, ie: fenders, random panels.Paint your fenders, im sorry but it looks like shiiit

The bumper is sweet though

 

Does the $3k include the engine, door sills, and trunk sills? Sounds about right, the hardest parts are those areas, the rest of the car is easy to paint

 

I can ask around with the car club that I run with. Have you seen that local ford expedition that is bagged, blue and silver with Alpine audio/video in it? It has been at Caspers the past few years. He is the guy that is doing mine. He works at a body shop in J-town and has been painting for like 30 years. I can ask him about it if you want.

 

that'd be great...no i havent seen it around town...i live in shepherdsville though.

 

well thats your opinion..i am going to leave all the cf..there are NO random cf panels on the car..the entite front is cf how is that random?...and the car is getting painted DARK GM..so it wont look like a puzzle..i dont think you'll be saying it looks like shiit when its done..it looks this good already and has no paint...mark my words

 

I know injeted performance is somewhere around your area. They do alot of kits; not sure if they do them or have it done somewhere else but they comeout lookin clean. Hit them up & see how they can help you out with this.

 

yeah thats everything..hes taking out all the windows,bumpers/doors off, doing the jams/under the hood...the whole 9yrds...just seems alittle high...i was thinking around 2k...but then again...you get what you pay for

 

The guy doing mine was guessing around 2500-3000 with all the detailed stuff, but he is gonna sit down and figure it out tonight or tomorrow. I will let you know what he says and ask around the next couple days...

 

Don't do DG. Every other coupe is DG. I would say go with a R34 skylnie blue, or go all black, and just clearcoat the CF

 

thanks everyone for the opinions and the ideas...hopefully the next pics i post ...the car exterior will be complete!!

 

Well?

 

Im with Lawy'du on this one! That'd be bad *** (the combination of blue w/ cf parts always looks nice)...or all black would be nice too w/ reclear of cf parts.

Either way I think its gona look bad *** when you have it all completed. But one thing id' do (my opinion) is add cf to the middle of your front bumper. Just like the GTR Proto concept.

Cant wait to see the finished product!

 

+++1 i aggree..i think i may go with black or the blue, but funds are limited at the time,no paint for now..

 

Hey Man we got company. This is the 3rd Production bumper. The Guy is near EL Camino Collge In Gardena, SoCal

 

any update?
