astonal Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 Hi 350z-uk Just thought I would share some exciting times as my Zed is currently being prepared and literally torn apart for its new "skin". Im having a custom paint job throughout, new custom painted brembo calipers, new discs, new bumper, new sideskirts and plenty of custom detailing around the car to polish it off. I hope you enjoy the pictures! I was in at Autoaudio today where it is being done and I must say, it was pretty hardcore seeing the car in this condition... the guys there are total professionals though, and as you can see not a single panel is being left untreated before the painting starts... I will keep the photos coming as it develops over the next few days. Cheers to all Al Quote
astonal Posted July 29, 2011 Author Posted July 29, 2011 at the moment its being reborn as a wreck. but next week things will be different (at least heres hoping) Quote
Jay Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 So are you going to tell us which body kit it is getting and what colour you are going for? Looking forward to seeing the outcome Quote
astonal Posted July 29, 2011 Author Posted July 29, 2011 Yes, should have mentioned.. Nismo V2 nose (sans canards), ING Side skirts and she already has a Chargespeed rear. Will keep the colour under my hat for now though (nothing outrageous), the entire car is being repainted, including sils etc... Hope to have back by late next week Quote
Wasso Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 Is that an Aston in the background? The burgunday colour car looks a bit E-type'esq Quote
ATTAK Z Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 Is that an Aston in the background? The burgunday colour car looks a bit E-type'esq DB6 Quote
astonal Posted July 29, 2011 Author Posted July 29, 2011 here are some additional snaps I took of Autoaudios rear forecourt (thats my Zed in the back left of the last shot). They had some unreal motors in there, and even more out front. Its like a custom car fans wet dream in there... none of the cars are "standard" in any way at all Quote
astonal Posted July 29, 2011 Author Posted July 29, 2011 one more, I dont even know what that car beside the zed is?! Quote
Madmarky Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Good luck with it all, i remember when mine was torn apart twice! its definately worth it in the end. Quote
Wasso Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Is that an Aston in the background? The burgunday colour car looks a bit E-type'esq DB6 Gotcha, see the roof line and quarter window. Clearly i was well off the scent. Quote
Keyser Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Nice one - Should look well when finished Hmmm what colour I wonder Quote
Blacky Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Looking forward to seeing the outcome, looks like a very professional job so far. Is going to be "ORANGE"? Quote
AK350Z Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 one more, I dont even know what that car beside the zed is?! The silver one is a Bristol Fighter. Quote

astonal Posted August 20, 2011 Author Posted August 20, 2011 Fellas Transformation is complete and here she be... hope you like the snaps, will post more in the next few days. The body shop did a fantastic job, zero rear wiper hole and debadging etc.. PS the colour is an official Nissan - 40th edition quartz - and to be honest the pictures dont do it justice, in the flesh its utterly Quote
DoogyRev Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 That's an unusual choice for a 350 and I like it Good one Quote
