Qas Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Im currently rebuilding my 350 z and have it now ready to respray... since my dad own a garage i dont pay anything fo rthe respray and ive been thinking of changing the color to white. Will this effect resale value? other than that im on two minds..! what do you guys think, if you have the choice to respray your whole car a different color for next to nothing but some physical labour...would you?

Maccaman Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 White Zeds are gorgeous & IMO would be a great colour to respray. A lot in the past have said Candy Apple Red (I think I'm right on this) Quote
martinmac Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 I would go for a deep red or the Interlagos Fire, both look great Quote
Chris`I Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Red or white would be my choice. Fancy doing mine for a few beers? Quote
tmJak Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 I think on the resale front it depends on how much your car is worth. Mine is now worth less than 10k so don't think anything I could do would significantly affect the sale price, it's too cheap to begin with! If it was brand new it might affect it more. Personally wouldn't bother me if a car had been resprayed if it looked f'in awesome Quote

Stew Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 Well white is all the rage but I'd go for something not available on a Zed to make it more interesting..... Quote
Sarnie Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 Well white is all the rage but I'd go for something not available on a Zed to make it more interesting..... +1 I'd be going for a rich orange ala Lambo/Zele.............................. Quote
sl114 Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 I agree with above actually, that would look awesome Quote
Beavis Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 I agree with above actually, that would look awesome Not often i agree with Sarnie and Louis Quote

ab350z Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 I was thinking about this last night. My boss just had his Bowler Wildcat resprayed in Lambo orange. I thought when he said it but it actually looked quite smart. Lambo orange with black wheels, roof, mirrors, spoiler would look Quote
Stew Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 I've said it before and I'll say it again.... Kawasaki Wildfire Orange is THE best orange out there. Quote

Did you not say no to doing an orange Zed beforehand.... could have sworn was in your reply Or was that just mine!! Quote

kashz Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 orange with carbon bits like the zele 370z if you got in ya Quote
Woody Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 I think white zeds look the mutts . But if i was getting my car re-sprayed, for free, id have to go for custom. I really like some House of Kolors paints. Make your own, choose a base and choose a finish. If it was mine id have to go for something like a ST orange with a silver flake finish and black wheels to finish it off Quote
LRF4N Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 orange is a good shout but id make it more pearlescent, or maybe a pearlescent yellow. im likin the kawasaki orange ur talkin about stew Quote
AndySpak Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Orange is not exactly custom for a Zed though is it... we have stock orange colours in the Sunset and the Temper. Quote
Sarnie Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Orange is not exactly custom for a Zed though is it... we have stock orange colours in the Sunset and the Temper. And both are **** Quote
Stew Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 orange is a good shout but id make it more pearlescent, or maybe a pearlescent yellow. im likin the kawasaki orange ur talkin about stew I liked it so much I bought a Kwak in that colour! It is probably the best standard proper paint colour I've seen. I say proper as the TVR relex paints are pretty cool not not 'proper' as they are flippy. Quote
