That paint job gave me a chubby.. is that wrong?! Man that is just so damn.. just wow.. awsome.. I'm jealous in a good way. Love the graphic splitting the car to.. grrr I need my settlement money like yesterday.

 

While i appreciate the work and craftsmanship that went into it, im not into the paint scheme. Im sure he still has to went sand cause the orange peel is quite evident.

Either way good job! cant wait to see the real final pics.

Here's the Air suspension testings

 

Badass Man! What rims are those?

 

very nice....i have the same badge in a dark grey stone up in front

 

yeah man nice job... my question is why do you still have your vfad in if you have a boosted car?

 

Yep there's orange peel everywhere. of course I will wet sand it, as u can see in the recent pix, I already did some parts. I also finished installing the rest of the car, like the CF Trunk, CF mirrors, LED trunk brake, CF wing, VS badge front & rear. The air suspension is also installed.
The orange peel was caused by 8 layers of clear coat without thinner, I'm trying to get all the maximum gloss possible while burying the grafix layer. Have to wet sands like crazy.
I know many dislike all the color scheme and graphix and all but I kinda needed the attention. The car is sorta a mascot for the shop, so it have to stand out in car shows exhibition and regular meet. U know to hook up customers.

 

Whats a vfad???

 

damn! the sick 8 reborn again

 

screw the nay sayers....i love the color and graphic scheme......car has some very nice touches.....but we need to see this puppy out of the booth and done!!....

 

I had triple black pearl done on my Maxima with triple clear and it took my buddy forever to wet sand it. I was probably his biggest pain in the *** customer ever but then again I have sent him hundreds of thousands in business so he owed me then and still does now. I bet it looks good now.

 

So did they paint the carbon hood while keeping the weave? Thats impressive!!
Looks like you got a great shop there


-hS

 

Still got a chubby from this paint job... just damn.. can't wait to see photo's when you have it in a booth.

 

well its the tube that is above the bumper support that was attached to the stock airbox



you can take that out

 

do we know if he has a turbo installed? The intercooler doesn't mean he has one.

I see a stock airbox on there too. Could be cut up on the inside... or it could just be a stock airbox.

 

that would be F'ing ghetto... haha. I hope not.

 

it looks wild. its nice!

 

So everyone agrees that Green and Purple match?

 

I guess I'm the only one thats not feeling it, but I do respect your effort put into it. I guess I prefer the clean look.

BTW, in post #39 the pass side intercooler piping seems to not be connected anywhere. Or maybe it has a sharp angle.

 

Too crazy for me but great effort!

 

no, i wouldn't do something like that, but it is crazy. you have to give him props. and he does it himself too.

 

How many colors is your car?

I like it. It reminds me of the way my tongue looks when I eat a pack of skittles and suck on them instead of chewing on them. Taste the rainbow baby.

 

his car is representative of the work his shop can do.....why on earth keep it simple or clean??....that would be pure stupidity!......its a very smart idea that he is going wild because look at all the attention it is stirring......good or bad you are taking notice of all the details...thats the entire point

 

I think it looks great. Very creative color combination! Good work. Course that wing on the back ruined every bit of envy I had.......but in Indonesia it's probably "da bomb".

 

chris, you really are a leg humper..LOL!
