Shitty Series 1 R34 Interior Plastic Paint

Good tip: Sand the hell outta it before you start painting... Another tip... When you think you've finished sanding.... Keep sanding! My paint is all furry and chips easily from when I thought I'd done enough sanding -
Hmmm I might be going!

Very nice! I've seen this done before but thought it was an image lighting thing. Good to know! -
I had gold calipers with the letters sanded back to a metal finish on the old 34. Looked mint! Anyways something to think about

Looks dodge as but did the trick! Mates sprayed a bonnet on they earlier before hence the massive lines of black -

Here it is baking in the sun. Couldn't get Powerplus tungsten metallic unfortunately, nor could the store find the paint code for it. So I took a gamble and went with tungsten mica metallic, same one used on the older Holden Statesman. $30 for a mixed up can, but pricey I think. Overall I'm happy with the colour but after sanding, 2 coats of primer and 3 with paint. It chips way to easily, I'm fairly new to painting but I can recognize what has happened pretty much straight away: Needed more prep time!. I'll run what I have for now and eventually I'll sand it down right, leave more time between coats, then spray with lighter coats and add a few layers of clear on the top at the end. Here are some pics -

My Bnr34 Vspec Uk-Model In Germany

Bad luck with that crash mate, I would of thought the damage would be a lot worse but you got quite lucky -
Mine had a blocker plate too, got sick of it after a while, it was overfuelling as well and would crack some mad flames just changing gears. Started doing it too much and I didn't want to damage the turbine so I took it off

Thanks mate it's running nismo s-tune coilovers, only slightly lowered... So comfy for daily driving

How does everyone go about painting the climate control plastic, more importantly the hot/cold blue/red part... Do you spray over it and scrape it off? Or mask it up and trim it to fit. spray it, then peel it off?
