Respray Is Booked!

[Rhinorebel]

My car and it's infamous bonnet are now booked in to be painted the week after the Skidpan.

My dilemma is that I had an idea in my head to paint the car in it's original silver and then have a blue pearl over the top.

This is VERY expensive and it would be much simpler and cheaper to find a new car with a silver/pearl paint and just give B&I the name of the car and colour and they will find it and paint my car.

So I need ideas and examples of current model (or within the last few years) cars that are silver with a metallic or pearl undertone.

I am looking at the new BA Falcon today as this series has a nice silver pearl. Have also been told that Mazda has a colour in the 6 range as well.

Thanks for any help.

Ferrari or BMW silver would be nice.

Who is doing the job.

You should have a talk to Carey at showdown customs 3353 1260, he did a black and pearl purple on my Torana for $3500.

Very happy with it and had the car back in six weeks not six years like some places.

Not the best pic to bring out the true colour as it was very cloudy that day.

B&I at Geebung are doing it. Several show cars I know were done there. If I can find the paint, they will put it on. If it becomes a case of applying blue pearl over the base, then it gets more expensive.

how much is it for a simple respray @ B&I Rhino?

[Rhinorebel]

My "simple respray" will be around the $4500 mark. But I have watched them work on a 350Z and it was magic. Have already spoken to me about the window rubbers as they are certain the old ones will break on removal. They were very helpful with all my questions and were recommended by people I respect. I didn't want a $2k bodgy job. I want a paint job I will want to take care of. Like Karen's.

P.S. The 350Z silver is bloody beautiful and winning so far. And the new HSV "Morpheus" was a candidate for a while, but seeing as how I'm just doing an outside respray, it wasn't viable. Pretty though!!

[frankxinyu]

nice

[Mud]

Dont forget to ask them to leave it out side in the acid rain between clear coats !!!

then you can get that cool un washed look all over!!

Oh , I vote 350Z silver !

then go and get some red and black check nismo decals made up.

Don't need FAST for that Shaney-poo

R32 GTR silver is KL0 and its called Spark Silver Metallic.

[Rhinorebel]

Hey Karen, can your FAST software get me the code for the 350Z Carbon Silver???

[Revhead]

Carbon Silver = K51 according to this page

Have a look at "L40 / Interlagos Fire" - looks nice in the pics anyway?? Depends on if it's your thing though. More pics of it here
