jknc90 Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I had an idea about an original, cool, cheap paint job. Here's a pretty quick photoshop of the basic idea. The top half would be flat black, and the bottom half would be flat olive drab. I'd use the xenon airdam up front tho (since its already on my car, and I just like it better). As for wheels i was thinking the some black sportmax 513 or some black diamond racing steelies. Thoughts? Opinions? Thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennysgreen280zt Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 There are a few S13's around here with that paint scheme. Doesnt look too bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jknc90 Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 you wouldn't happen to have any pictures would you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I love the black on top paint scheme in general. I just don't think it suites an s30. The roof line on a s30 (to me at least) is what defines its shape. that and the long nose. If you paint the top halve of the car black you completely lose the shape. On a honda NSX though it is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jknc90 Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 I think the two-tone helps to accentuate the lines of the car, especially in the rear quarter area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jknc90 Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 jtmny1999, nice car. That's basically what I'm going for except with the olive, and flat black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kennysgreen280zt Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 hrm, the one I was thinking of was opposite... cant find a better picture of the other one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jknc90 Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 Thanks for the pictures. I think for mine, I'm going to have the hood black and carry the black onto the inspection lids and cowl, and then carry the black from the inspection lids to the side body line...if that makes sense. Lol, I'm tired and I'm not sure I explained that very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
