You can't go wrong with Midnight Purple 3. Love that color on GTRs.

I'm getting a paint job toward end of this year, going to go Orange with gold flake or a Orange with a red overlay/pearl for that sunset effect. But if I want to keep it looking "stockish" but still "sexy" midnight purple is the go.

Custom if it's going to be a show car is a great idea.

If it's just a streeter, then IMO a good paint job in a stock colour (even if it's not stock for a Nissan) is a good idea.

This is a good idea. Look at other stock colours from other manufacturers and it will definitly stick out on a car that does not usually have that paint job. But if you want to stick out even more than its as simple as sticking in a touch of pearl and you have a different look altogether,.

I hate gay custom colours..

I like subtle, whites, greys, black and reds, with a tiny bit of pearl.

White with blue pearl ftw.. or Black with Blue Pearl!!

Loving it. No Karimspec cars plz!

Have a look at my cousin's old gemi with Black with Blue pearl.. it looked rad!

Blue chrome ? any pics
Haven't seen any cars with this particular colour yet but, the helmet below would be the best example of what it looks like. It's basically several coats of clear chrome then blended with a layer of coloured candy paint.

AFAIK most of the coloured chrome is legal.

For factory colours - Nissan's Bayside blue is pretty nice, as found on the R34 GT-R's

The gold and silver would blind you on a sunny day :cheers:

Yeah more than likely :D the gold & mirror chrome would be illegal.

Yeah so true ;)

    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
    • You can probably scrub the rust with a toothbrush or something. After you get the rust off flush well with water to neutralize and you will probably want to also use a fuel tank sealer to keep it from rusting again.
    • The sodium citrate solution is designed to buffer the citric acid to keep it from attacking metal quite so much, the guy that came up with that recipe did a ton of testing on how much metal loss occurs over time and it's nothing crazy unless you forget about it for months:   
    • Ohhh I see lol To be honest the main reason why I wanted to start modding is because of a business trip to Japan and Indonesia. I saw many cool and modded cars all throughout in these countries, especially Japan. I myself am of Chinese+Japanese nationality and when living in china (never lived in Japan js my dad side lol) I remember staring at these cars pass by with their loud tacky exhausts and insane wide body kits. And when I went back to Japan, I got even more invested even asking people about their cars and why they modded. Most gave similar answers to what you said but funny enough one guy just said that he saw the need for speed movie being filmed once in Tokyo I think near Shibuya Crossing and got inspired to tune and mod. After that I just started to fantasize on owning a car like that. Also tbh I prefer the R32 over the R34 it's just the R34 is more iconic lol (also apparently better aftermarket support than the R32) and my only goal really is just to make the car mine and make it fun to drive. As much as I love my Cayenne it's pretty bland to drive. Sure the interior is nice and pretty, gives you attention yada yada but I've wanted to experience what it is like to have a car that is truly yours. I suppose thats the goal so far. Haha if you find where I'm from, then sure. Ill help you out on your next "financial decision"
    • From what I am discovering, the grey plug is auto signal. If you car is manual it's not relevant to your set up man.
