smudgedon Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) A few of you may have gathered by now, that I have a slight addiction with anything purple (waits for the jokes/puns) I've had some PM's recently from members saying "check this out, you need it" purely because it's purple Most recent one from Chris (dErZ): So, if you spot ANYTHING purple that is worth having for the car (not just general crap), drop it in here or PM me ***I MUST STRESS THAT IT HAS TO BE A CERTAIN SHADE OF PURPLE - IT HAS TO BE A DARK PURPLE, SIMILAR TO CADBURYS PURPLE*** So close to this: NOT this: I'd almost go as far to say that my purple addiction is more severe than Keyser's green addiction Edited January 29, 2013 by smudgedon 1 Quote

ph 7 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 How about wheel nuts.....there was also a floral tax disc holder but it wasn't the right colour http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CK-Engineering-Subaru-Nissan-Wheel-Nuts-12x1-25-Thread-Purple-/111005486632?pt=UK_Cars_Parts_Vehicles_Wheels_tyres_Trim_Nuts_ET&hash=item19d8714e28 Quote
ph 7 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 also, is there any differnce in the bulb clusters from the dash lights between nissans...if not then tis could be good. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ZPE-Purple-Dash-LED-kit-for-the-Nissan-Skyline-R34-Series-1-/271142872447?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f215fe57f Quote

ph 7 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 strange one now....what about deviating from a black window tint and going for a purple...you have the car colour to potentially pull it off. Quote
smudgedon Posted January 29, 2013 Author Posted January 29, 2013 strange one now....what about deviating from a black window tint and going for a purple...you have the car colour to potentially pull it off. Please be joking....? Quote
ph 7 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 nope, just thinking aloud...said it was odd....you could then get a purple dragon decal put down the side...okay now i'm joking this offends me: http://www.dtmstickers.com/Nissan-Slimline-Retainer-Holder-Purple/dp/B00AW06EM6?traffic_src=froogle&utm_medium=organic&utm_source=froogle Quote
Wasso Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Nowt wrong with Universal, I have Mishimoto Universal Cans Quote
ph 7 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 That was what i'd go in my head.....like i said...odd Quote
smudgedon Posted January 29, 2013 Author Posted January 29, 2013 Nowt wrong with Universal, I have Mishimoto Universal Cans Oh really? Hmmm might consider it then! Quote
smudgedon Posted January 29, 2013 Author Posted January 29, 2013 That was what i'd go in my head.....like i said...odd Anything but black tints just screams "chav" at me However, I like you're thinking keep the ideas coming Quote
ph 7 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 I must say I'd agree, depends on how subtle you could make it look, and silver tints would make it look like a van! You could always accessorize.... Quote
ph 7 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 hahaha, How about plast dip...is this the right colour tone....it would allow you to play and showing it on a colour panel Quote
smudgedon Posted January 29, 2013 Author Posted January 29, 2013 Plati-dip just seems a bit..."cheap" to me Would rather get bits annodised and sprayed where possible, Wasso being my annodising man and I have a very good bodyshop that have never failed me before Quote
Husky Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Why not just crack on with some purple paint? Ricey did and it looked good. Quote
smudgedon Posted January 29, 2013 Author Posted January 29, 2013 Why not just crack on with some purple paint? Ricey did and it looked good. A few bits will be painted but just interesting to see what people can find out there Quote
Wasso Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 You could also powder coat purple. I'm seeing a company today to venture further into the Wasso Empire Quote
Husky Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Have you thought about getting parts dipped? Hydrographics I mean. Quote
jumping350 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) your better off just doing it yourself in one colour you like whether spraying or dipping the odds of finding things you want in one 'rare' colour is going to be hard and im sure you will buy something looking right colour in pic but when it turns up find out pic was taken in shadow and is lighter than expected. then you would have a various purple toned enging bay ive got a maroon thing going on in my bay bought a spray can of it the other day to do my strut bar as ive never seen a maroon end strut brace Edited January 29, 2013 by jumping350 Quote
kbeast35 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 How about one of these http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/62446-custom-anodised-plenum-spacers-170-next-batch-march/ Quote
