Wow looks great on a 240, I never would have figured it for a domestic color. How much did that cost you, if you don't mind me asking?

Post by **ADAMHU** » Mon May 10, 2004 3:51 am

yeah...i started to look at colors and i went thru all the chip charts and i narrowed it down to this ford color (used on ford festivas if you can believe it) or viper red from dodge...but i liked this color better...since i was looking for a very glossy and bright type red..

one of our race series sponsors did it for me $1300cdn...about 850-900us funds

i installed all the body kit my self so that helped...

Looking good Adam, much better then before if I may say so. I still think you should lose the wing though.

Wow, I was qouted over $1500US to change my car to ANY other color, and they told me red paint would be $100 per quart and up. I know you said one of the race sponsors did it, but still sounds like I better keep shopping around. You car looks great.

Looks tasty. I need to get me some K1's.

Reminds me of Tang's JDMRICE car.

Hmmm.. that bumper looks like it has room for both the newer and older S13 signal lamps o_O

He obviously doesn't know what you do Adam

Everything on your car is wonderfully functional. Looks good bro.

that's a great deal what mine will look like after i get it painted. Kinda weird, although i went with a different Bomex front.

Post by **Red Lightning** » Mon May 10, 2004 3:51 am

I don't like the front end, but the rest looks good. Even the wing suits the car.

Post by **GEO** » Mon May 10, 2004 3:51 am

why is your name veilside then? ;-)

Post by **slipsr20** » Mon May 10, 2004 3:51 am

DAMN!

Post by **veilside180sx** » Mon May 10, 2004 3:51 am

i had made it awhile ago(veilside) when i was obsessed with that kit, but i think it doesn't flow with the lines of the car well enugh now. Now i just don't feel like remembering another name=)

I expected someone to catch that...hehe

Post by **Altiman94** » Mon May 10, 2004 3:51 am

I like that color

Post by **im two techno** » Mon May 10, 2004 3:51 am

Hey it looks great man! I know im a painter. Just so you guys understand Amam's friend did him a favor at that kind of a price.

Who made the paint?

Post by **HaveBlue** » Mon May 10, 2004 3:51 am

are those fender flares 'universal' or are they a particular manufacturer/design for the 240sx?Car looks great btw

Post by **574-240sx** » Mon May 10, 2004 3:51 am

Love the paint. Also is that a Bomex front bumper?

so....i was wondering, how much would you charge if i wanted my car painted?

Post by **red240ne** » Mon May 10, 2004 3:51 am

A good full paint job would cost at the LEAST 2000 bucks.

Post by **andrave** » Mon May 10, 2004 3:51 am

not a big fan of sticking a vent or flare anywhere where one bolts on. Especially if you just stick them on with 3M tape or sheet metal screws and don't mold anything. the wing is ludicrous, the hood vents look non functional, and tests have shown that putting washers under the rear of the hood just makes it look ghetto and doesn't actually aid in cooling.Why mount those fender flares on if you don't even have enough wheel to fill up the stock openings?
