are you gonna repaint the calipers now? If not you should do an accent stripe around the black in the same color green to kinda tie it in. Something thats like 1/4 inch or something.

[pflicht]

a small hint at a at my update cominglater today or tomorrow.

The EXACT blue I WANT!!! Hell yeah! Great minds DO think alike!

[idahotuner]

calipers are staying green. its a nice off set. but the valve cover is going the same blue. i just have to pull it off and strip it. but i have to wait for my dad to get back from florida to paint it for me.

[pflicht]

Whats the code or name of the blue you used? BTW, im going RB...

[idahotuner]

color code B17. ( SORRY WC MY DAD WANTED TO PICK THE PAINT BRAND) WC has soem for sale and it isa killer deal.

Sooo stole my paint idea...My S14 and my bros Z33 with the same paint would of been sexy, but NOOOO...

You did an extremely legit job for a DIY, or is that not a DIY paint job?

EDIT:This is my favorite picture so far. You see the pretty car and behind is the opposite. You see perfection and at the same time you see its humble lifestyle...Like Rags to Riches

Or maybe I am a queer. But this definitly needs to be the new sig

[idahotuner]

its is a DIY my dad did it for me lol. he use to do it professionally and now he just does it as his part of my projects

[idahotuner]

that is deffiently sig material i will maek it at work tomorrow where i have photoshop

[RCA]

I asked myself how do people get like 10K+ posts...Then I read your last two...

Your Dad does great work BTWSince you went B17 I will have to go blizzack!

Any suggestions to what type of black to use?

And the cold hearted pimpery continues!@!#!

That paint scheme rocks Ben! I almost wanna say mask your wheels and paint them that black with blue pearl like the hood stripe. But maybe the regular gloss black wheels will bring out the pearl in the car.

And I'm sure it looks much better in person, seeing as you can barely see pearl in a photo...can really see it in the hood close up though

[PhopsonNY]

Very nice paint job...

I am not sure about the scheme, but it is really well executed.

good luck

the roof is just normal gloss lack along wit hthe mirrors. so the wheels go well with it. it still needs wet sanded and buffed to look really good but i am excited to drive it today.

[urcaptnspeaking]

Looks really good man! I was going to buy this paint as well, but I had seen a lot of people with plans for the same color...so Im still not decided on what color I will stay with.

[idahotuner]

yeha i cahnged my mind about a million times before i settled on a color lol

[pflicht]

looks fxckin sick tho! Great sig btw!

[srpowered240sx]

looks great, paint came out awesome. your build is coming along great.

[idahotuner]

thanks alot guys. i just havea few more little things then my build will be pretty much over for the year until next year when i build the block.

[Didderson]

Like I said on aim man, one of the best 240's out there right now. The paint just made the judges fall off their chairs. Integration with the wheel color is tyte.

I knew it was daytona! lol. Great choice with the pearl added.Awesome awesome.

Anyway, wow. Makes me wish I was allowed to use the garage again for things more than maintenance lol. I've been saving for college and my car remains the same, but I remain content with her so its all good.

[idahotuner]

thanks tom. it makes me very happy. cant waitto drive it around. i think i might let it sit for one more day though before going and driving it and washing it. want the paint to set up nice and good.

[240sxHitman]
