If you mean paint in a pressure can so you can do it yourself then Marlows Balcatta can mix it or the Auto paint centre (I think thats what it's called) on Balcatta road.

You'll need the code of course.

Cheers

HAHAAH nice one, i have been trying to do that to my 33 but it won't suit my mags... HAAHAHA! only a car of that calibre could get away with doing that! if i ever see a skyline or supra like that i will cry! :lol:

I will be going past Marlows in Balcatta on the weekend i will ask how much for a small can to be made up.... i have the burgundy colour AN0 i think the code is but i can't see much of a cost difference between colours.... correct me if i am wrong...

Dont get marlows to mix it. Your paint will be slightly faded compared to the new paint, panel beaters can match your colour, and pack it in a pressure can for you. Its not cheap, but you will also get their advice on how to do it so it doesnt react with whats there, and how to blend it in, and whether to use clear or not.

The only way you will be able to match it is if a professional does it.

Gradenko or boostzor can vouch for me knowing about paints.

Pft u couldnt paint ure way out of a wet paper bag Deesh:lol:j/k

Yeh id agree with him there, nothing like a good match. The last thing u want is a big "different" spot in ure paintwork.

But remember just cause it looks good in the garage doesnt meen that when u look at it in the sun it wont look horrible;)

I dont think my entire suburb has that much suede:eek:

Hooray the guy just finished polishing my car at work:D

Its soo dam shiny but all the flaws in the paintwork really stick out now. Looks like some super acidic bird has shat on it in like 3-4 places and left these little crappy spots:mad:

      Gates is saying the same thing. They think I have the right bag with the wrong hose in it... I bought it off amazon, I'm thinking someone pulled a good old swapparoo and returned normal hose. Well looks like she's coming back out... Not very lucky with this hose lol.

      Chatting one someone recently at racing them at QR. They say you can't take turn 2 in one flat stick in 4th. They don't have the torque to pull them selves straight, so make sure you're ringing it's neck out in 3rd instead

      Should you buy cheap Chinese tyres?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Many years ago when I bought my FG XR6T, it came with bald tyres on the back (think pretty much smooth for most of the tread) and brand new Kinforest cheap shit tyres on the front. In the rain, I had more grip in the bald ass tyres on the back, than the brand new Kinforest. To the point you couldn't drive off at a set of lights and turn the corner. Car would only go straight. Very quickly all four tyres were replaced.   A few years back on a VF SV6 I had, it came with brand new chineesium tyres. In the wet at 90kmh, old 1990s tray back tradie utes could corner faster than me. There was one corner on a freeway, in a 90 zone, it's not even marked to reduce speed for those curve, it's not a hard corner, I could put the LandCruiser on mud tyres through with ease (it would easily do the corner in the wet I reckon at 120kmh), the VF however couldn't get through it at 80, as it would want to slide out.   Cheap tyres aren't worth the risk. I like decent brakes, and decent grip.
