  • flat grey paint

    I've always thought flat grey would look great on a r32 skyline and I want to paint my skyline but I'm having a hard time finding good inspiration. Is there any examples out there anyone know of? google did not help lol

      Why? If your car's paint isn't ruined right now then why? Flat colors look awful in my opinion. Especially when painted with specific types of paint which require clear.

      Anyway, your car, your choice. To each their own

        Actually body has a lot of rust and some touchup paint so i though might as well, the satin sheen does look pretty nice if you can get it right

                We did this paintjob for a customer not too long ago and its a "matte" grey and it came out beautiful, specially when its wet but its not glossy. But to each their own.

                      For an OEM finish look into Cromax Pro. It's a water base paint used on cars from factory. Illegal to sell without license though.

                        Powdercoat ftw. More durable (weather, heat fade and scratch/chip) aswell as better adhesive when sandblasted properly. Not to mention you can get just about any color done aswell.

                          Looks of work to get a whole car powerdcoated. Stripped of all plastic/rubber.
                          Traction is optional, so are zipties

                              Matte looks great as long as there are no defects in the body. Makes them stand out like mad.
