morning/night according to where u are


I was just wondering if people have tried changing their colors using repaint or foil ? specifically to black ?


im thinking of changing my car's color from red to black but was hoping to see some pix from other members with black foil or repaint to know exactly how it looks like

so if you do have pix ... please post them





this is my car

 

Do not mess with your car's color man

 

+1 QFT

Think about it, there's tons of black, white and PG/AG G37's.. not quite a lot of Red.. I say stay unique!

 

^ Yup to both. Also, a professional re-paint that is a color switch is very expensive and never looks right. They cannot paint your engine bay, etc. It will always be red and you'll know the car has been painted. Many other areas are very difficult, and if done right, big $$$$

Not worth it, especially just to do BLACK which is an OEM color. Buy a black G. ..if you were wanting to do something unique, then maybe.

 

^ what he said. If you want a black G, get rid of yours and get a black one. If you want to paint your G, paint it matte black or that gasoline color that changes color at every angle.... anyone know the actual name for that??

 

I don't know if people have a slang term for it, but it is just pearl. Pearl is an additive added to the paint. OEM pearls are the same color pearl as the base paint (typically). I.E. white pearl added to white paint. ^ With those they add an opposite color pearl to the base, say red pearl on white paint. The car is white, but when the sun hits it at certain angles you get a red. The more pearl the more the effect. The real extreme that you are talking that go from like orange to blue to green to purple is a very heavy amount of those color pearls.

 

^Chameleon paint.

OP Your red looks great. You're probably just tired of it which is understandable after a few years. At that point I say get a new car! :P

 

Thnks guys .. I really love the color atm but


true that .. but im waiting for a year since the car im thinking of will be changed soon so dont wanna waste money on a car thats going to have a new look

so i prefer changing the color .. but need to see some cars that were done with the foil to see how they look

 

A black foiled/painted car will look like another black color G. There are tons of pics of black g's with painted wheels and spacers on eibach drop just like yours. Go thru those threads.

 

Agreed with all above... are you drunk? haha jk The red is sick, and if you don't agree, then it is only worth changing if you want to do a really different custom color. Chameleon paint is for show cars and after a few minutes of looking at it, it just looks lame.

 

lool im actually bored atm from the red which is why im preferring foil ( which can be removed whenever i want to )

and i wanna go with a casual color not something flashy .. red just attract to much attention and mainly cops

 

Red is awesome. True story.

Definitely wrap then, like a matte black?

 

I think you're just bored in general man, get a PlayStation or something lol
