That should look pretty killer man. Can't wait to see it completed.

 

oh i like that colour, kinda looks like the 350Z colour

 

A little darker than the 350, but a very nice gunmetal gray.

 

Very nice.

I'm jealous.

Thx all, it should look like a shark now!
I can't wait until it's done. Then I can drive it to a bunch of other shops (stereo, gauges, exhaust).
Yup, shop to shop. My car will love me lol

 

So why a picture of the strut?

BTW, nice color. There's a tib in my city running around with a color just like that

 

What noo!!! I wanted to be the first. ha fat chance, eh? It seems nobody's the first for anything anymore these days...
Anyways, the pic of the strut is because they're only done the engine bay for now.

 

Could I be so kind to ask what paint code?? you ended up using, or is it a custom color? I want to paint my Tib this color as well just curious if you wouldnt mind sharing, at least to give me a starting point.

How close is it to that Supra that was in the other thread you started?

 

Not sure of the paint code, as it's a custom color I had them mix up.
There's more depth to it than the supra from the other thread. Sorry I can't be more help.
I would suggest looking at the swatches the paint shops have as a starting point, and have them add/subtract black and/or color until you get a color you like. I went through a crazy process. They even used my spoiler a few times so I would be happy with the color. It's difficult to tell what a color will look like until you see it on a larger piece (like the spoiler).

 

Gonna be sweet!

 

Oh man that looks sweet!

 

Tis hot as shizzly.

honestly my jaw dropped.. bro thats coming out unbelievable
daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn indeed

 

Damn, Chaotix!!!!

Thats one of the colors that I really like.!!!

All I can say is "DAMN!!!!"

How much is it costing you?

I will be painting my car soon too...Looking for a paint shop right now.....

Any tips on finding a right paint shop and some tips on saving?

 

Thx Kenny!
ya, I picked the paint shop I did, because they do ALL the old style hot rods in town. You always see hot rods and drag racers out front. That's why I picked them. I thought that if they're good enough for those guys, they'll know what they're doing.
it's costing ME $1600 Cdn. More is covered by Hyundai because of my paint problem. They're covering the front bumper, hood, roof, driver's side door sill, hatch, and spoiler. I'm not sure of their cost in it.
If you have problems with your paint already, it's possible Hyundai will paint the affected areas. You will have to fight a little to get them to do it. I dunno, the U.S. might be different than Canada, but I had to threaten legal action.
Anyways, glad you like it!

what paint problem did you have that hyundai is chipping in? I had a blemish on my front right fender where the paint looked bubbled up. They repainted it for me for free.

 

That color is awesome!!!

That is sweet dude!!

Numerous different problems, actually. The hood and roof were "scabbing". The clearcoat was becoming separated or something, and it was spreading like a disease. The door sill had dirt under it, so it was bubbling. The bumper had huge chips in it most likely from rocks, but the paint removed itself in large chunks there - it didn't hold to the bumper very well, and the hatch - the hatch had paint problems under the spoiler. Supposedly, the gaskets weren't thick enough, and the spoiler moves very slightly in the wind, causing friction and paint damage.

Joshuwa - thanks man!

 

DAMN! I envy you very much...thats exactly the color I want mine to be! ::sigh:: someday, someday...

Coming along very well, I cant wait to see it completed!

 

The color looks great, but is there some kind of painted scheme on the side of the car or is that just the lighting. I cant tell if those are some painted graphics or just light.

 

Just lighting.

 

......

OMFG!!!

That soooooo rocks!

One of the most beautiful colors I have ever seen.

.....

AHHH my eyes are going crazy. It's Sooo pretty.
