once i get my car back i will be putting a wide arch kit on it. Do you guys think that i should keep the car the same colour or change it to black? I like the zed in black

I like black to ;) but yours is also a very nice colour.

Thats no help is it :headvswal

Blue, There's loads of black ones out there.

id say blue too, dont see that many around and its a great colour when polished up

Stick with blue, but a nicer shade of blue, you got the usual choice of bayside blue, daytona blue, or as my choice was brillian blue.... the blue you have on your car is too much of a conservative colour, whilst it looks fine a nicer shade of blue will really show up the wide arch kit, etc, etc...

Lee stick with Blue mate....blacks nice when clean but pain in the a$$ to keep clean

black or blue. either rocks.

 

Pantha black would look the nutz

Blue all the way but as Lee (Importance) said, go for a different shade as i don't think your blue will suit a wide arch kitted 300.

Just IMHO though ;)

I'd go for a fancy silver because blue only looks ace when it is clean and shiny. Silver can carry the dirt mich better. Dark cars are loverly when clean, but we live in Blighty and 10 yards on the road in the rain and they look scruffy.

take marks advice, turn it inside out and back to front and paint it with chrome paint...

 

 

then add a nice blue tint in the laquer :D ps... that will cost a fortune!

and that would be the cheapest possible end of the scale imo...

i'd stick with the blue Lee, but like said maybe a different shade and some metal flake or a bit of pearl, go and see pete (pps) i'm sure he still has his colour chips, or if not he'll point you in the right direction.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH "CHROME" :bow: :bow: :bow:

I agree with Clarkmagpie, loads of Black ones around. Keep it Blue.

I wish Luvley Boy. :D

i do like blue just not the current colour blue. I saw a lovely blue on a new mondeo the other day!

Im not too bothered about making sure its clean, i had a black car before this one and as sad as it is i enjoyed making it spotless.

Also any metallic blue will shine up so much nicer and easier than black!! if you go to a decent paints supplier you'lll be surprised just how many nice shades of blue there are!!, I remember looking at some of the Suzuki blues and thinking very nice!!, also have a look at Nissan Intense blue, is a colour I almost opted for...

Bayside Blue. :D :bow:

Bayside Blue. :D :bow:

Top colour yes, but has it has it's day? ie it wouldn't be something original or new?

Very correct but it looks so good on a 300zx and the R34 still. But yes you are right.

 

Then I would suggest a deep black coat with a candy blue translucent laquer with a hint of silver fleck to add that certain something when the sun comes back. :D

Yeah something like that would work well, but just document the mix for future touch ups!!

There's your answer then ..... paint the fooker Black and enjoy cleaning it....LOL

 

Only thing i gotta say is if you do paint it black make sure whoever does the widearch conversion does a good job as black shows up every imperfection

is black therefore the perfectionists colour?

Nope....just nothing worse than seeing ripples and joins where the widearch fits onto the body....marks in bodywork are more noticable on dark colours.. IMO
