What do people think of my white Impul Z concept (photoshopped from my black one)

I plan to paint the rear bumper grill matt black, tint the lenses for the indicators and paint the inside of the front scoop black also.

 

Thoughts?

Go for satin mate, it stays looking fresh longer.

Satin may last longer and look clean, but in my opinion I think gloss looks superior and stands out more from coming from a dull faded black.

Why are you going for Matt then?

No no no. Gloss white. I guess like funkysi's but not a pearl

You said you were going to paint the rear bumper grill Matt Black, Steve was recommending Satin Black instead:thumbup1:

Don't do satin IMO. Also don't do the inside of the bumper aperture. For the accents around the indicators and the fogs and the recess in the rear (Impul) just go for a nice deep metallic grey. It'll give a cleaner look.

Oh, I meant on the Impul back bumpers they have a grill in the back bumper, but yes stain black would look nice there.

I'll take what you say on board, but when I get round to actually painting it I'll do a mock up and see which looks best in real life because I think the black inside the bumper would look nice.

Just give it a fresh coat of black. It will be cheaper, less work, original and black Z's look so cool.

I'm not really bothered if this gets much attention but I did the rear of the car to white keeping the impul mesh probably satin black.

Boy the Impul rear bumper looks like a storm trooper.

Do you have the bumpers??

Oh and just the person, it was only in the other thread i was commenting on your Impul front tints. Is it correct you used pray on tints for them?

 

Also you have an amazing Impul example.

I need to get round to taking some more, but this is what I've got for now. Or look at the video I took when I bought the car.

Just FYI I am 16 and in the middle of restoring 2 zeds, I think you could agree its the perfect first car/s :)

leather looks good in there Ali

Cheers Martin, I'm going to do the can belt soon, and then try save up for those skirts :)

I have to say I quite like the white idea

My suggestion would be keep it to 2 colours only, white body black everything else.

if you look at most cars they are 3 colours if you look at body, wheels, trim and tyres.

Just 2 will make people look twice and not know why as its just slightly off the norm

maybe even black chrome the tailpipes

for example

or the other way round

I have to admire your dedication Ali:thumbup: I'm still trying to restore one Zed and it's taken me a few years to get this far. Let alone take on two:thumbup:

Fair play to you. The white and black combo does look extremely well, but to do it right would cost a few thousands. Stick with it:thumbup1:
