dude, just save the money and get a real paint job instead. It’s a 300zx not a ford tempo. ---

definately don’t paint it flat black…stick with a darker color though, a dark blue or black would look hot IMO ---

dude just admit that you dont wanna spend the money on a good paint job…rather than acting like you really do want a flat black Z…because we all know that really isn’t what you want. Just spend the g and a half and get it done up stock red…nothing wrong with that…an NA Z with a pretty new paint job = a boosted Z with a crappy paint job to me…both are awesome cars… ---

Did somebody say rattlecan! :snky: If you are going to do it flat black use some chalkboard paint. Otherwise, a dark metalic color would rock so much better. ---
