I'm also curious on the upkeep of the paint/clear? I mean, black is hard enough to keep clean I assume flat black would only make the swirls even more visible?

I wanna see pics of the widebody G35! What else have you done to it? Love that car! If only I didn't have two kids...

Sad to hear about postponing the paint job...was really hoping to see how it came out. Soon enough though (hopefully).

sorry, i had more important shit to do than look at this thread.

theres no need to get all defensive. i did get my shit straight. maybe im calling you out cause your bragging and i dont like people that brag. i dont care if you have 10 million dollars in the bank, or 10 dollars in the bank. if you run around and start bragging about it... that shit aint cool.

grow up, noone needs to know what you have. but hey, you know what... if you need to tell everyone to make yourself feel better about it. go right ahead. its just like a mod, .... as long as you like it...

To each their own......I'd have to wait to see the color in person.......from the linked pics, it kinda looks like what my 69 mustang looked like when it was primmer'd then waxed lol
I'm sure up close and personal, it won't look anything like a primmer job.
