I heard primer isnt as good as paint. Ive been told the primer is pourus and will absorb moisture to help the paint adhear to it, which will increase the chances of rusting the metal if there isnt any paint over it.

oh oh, go with a pearl! I suggest yamaha Bluish white ****tail. Looks awesome in the light! has red blue and silver in the paint in the sun, but looks white in the shade

I want that ferrari (348 i believe) in the background!

White is always good. Or a dark blue would look nice as well.

Pearls r more expensive, theres multiple layers in the paint and clear in order to make it "pearl" A gloss black with a clear is easy, but it has no depth, a metallic has more then on to a pearl ect. Eventually u get to the camelion paints. Nice, but too blingy for me

Man that pic does it no justice! My bike has bluish white pearl ****tail on it. Looks pimp in the light! The red is a pearl and so is the black. Pearls just look tons better than metallics IMO.So what color did u decide on? r u going 2tone? I hear Float_6969 just got his S13 painted, im guna bring my digi cam over to his place today to get some pics, Ill try and post some good quality ones on here for ya if u need me to.
