I'm painting mine B17. For those who don't know what color that is, it's the 350z daytona blue. But I didn't get any pearl I should have waited and painted it blue chrome or chameleon.

mmm, blue chrome.. I was debating on painting the car bayside blue (skyline) with a silver pearl in it. I think it would wreck the look of the paint though.

The only reason for the cheaper paint is because I haven't got use to coilovers and kit, even tho my other car had it. Just to much trouble to spend fixing re-painting .

I have yet to strip the entire engine bay and then I will paint it. I also got some undercoating for the chassis/wheel wells to prevent any other rusting.... I want this car to last me a long time and be a looker as well =)
