kingbiscuit Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 I know nothing of the cost of resprays but I was messin around in photoshop and kind of want to do this to my Zed. I know its quite a subtle change but I like it that way. Does anyone know anyone who could do a two tone jobby like this. Has to be a quality job and how much do you reckon it would cost? After Before Quote
Jay Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Leave the poor car alone lol Nah i reckon if u where gonna go down the whole 2 tone root do somethin that will really stand out! IMO Quote
kingbiscuit Posted July 1, 2008 Author Posted July 1, 2008 Yeah, I havnt decided on wheels yet. Will probably go for Nismos. I was just fannying around with mine and couldnt be arsed to change them to Nissys in photoshop Quote
Ian Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 If your gonna do 2 tone do it top & bottom. CF or black hatch,bonnet, roof & pillars & then everything below that in standard colour Quote

IMO Im not really into Green or orange monsters with veilside kits and stickers all over it. I like subtle I'll change the wheels for Nissys tomorrow and hopefully the final will look good Quote
martinmac Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 If you want something different PM Zedrush, the place he used is pretty good and could handle this. Quote
kingbiscuit Posted July 1, 2008 Author Posted July 1, 2008 Thanks Martin. Has anyone got a good side on pic of the grey Nismo 19" rims? I cant find any pics Quote

tmJak Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 That looks awesome! I vote you should do that. Think to get a respray done properly it costs between 2-3k, but thats cos the car has to be reduced to a shell forst. Prob a lot cheaper if you aren't drastically changing the colour as you won't need to do the engine bay etc. Quote
IanS16 Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Are you on about the alloys now or the whole car? p.s. MINT porsche:lol: Quote

Prob a lot cheaper if you aren't drastically changing the colour as you won't need to do the engine bay etc. That was my reasoning for keeping the original silver at the front of the car and fade to gunmetal at the rear. I just tried the Nismos on the car in photoshop but they looked a bit strange. May have to get some others. Not a big fan of aftermarket wheels though (except manufacturers options) Quote
kingbiscuit Posted July 1, 2008 Author Posted July 1, 2008 Only my opinion but the wheels look awful So does your Genesis avatar Quote
shire350Z Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 hiya mate iv got a GM with nismos on can see them here and there could be for sale soon http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... highlight= Quote
Stew Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 If the car is a keeper then go for it. Very subtle. If you plan on selling the car in a couple of years then I'd be very careful as two tone is very a very acquired taste. Quote

3FIDDYZ Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 Hummmm Grey fade.... Not sure about that silver to red maybe... am with Ian on the the 2 tone black though Painting your wheels gloss black for now would be better.... Quote
kingbiscuit Posted July 2, 2008 Author Posted July 2, 2008 Not my cup of Zed But each to their own Looks a bit too Wideboy for me. If was into those sorts of looks I would have bought a chav wagon like an evo or an impreza. Quote
kingbiscuit Posted July 2, 2008 Author Posted July 2, 2008 Oh! and girls will think you are a tool in that! Quote
