I like it. Should have got the Ings lx fenders with kit, it will look good on white coupe. Did shop try to color match paint instead of using the G color code?

Yea the kit looks really good, very smooth...I as well would have tried to get the fender flares if I were you...They would look great on white because you'd be able to see them so well...As much as I didn't want to believe that the paint was off, when I stare at it closely I'm afraid I have to agree with the others...It might not bother you, or now that we mention it, it could **** you off everytime you see it...I have an IP G and I was told by body shops that its the hardest color in the Infiniti lineup to matchup with bodywork...Did your bodyshop just trying matching it, or did they use infiniti paint codes? Thanks bud, and sweet ride man

Yeah, the paint is a bit brighter white . They painted it using the color code of the car. With my past experiences with having pearl white cars, it should fade with the sun and match the color of the car within a couple of months . If not, the body shop, M1 Autobody, says they'll respray it if I didn't like it. Thanks for all the nice comments guys, I appreciate it .

i agree also, at first it looks ok but as you stare at it more the paint seems to be different shades. who makes that kit btw and how much did you get it for?
