sick240 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Well my poor little Z now has some paint on her, but my question is flat black or semi on the tail light panel? Here is some pic's of the before and after. I am so ready to drive her again, poor thing as been in the shop since last May. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palosfv3 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Semi will probably be the right call for the type of finish but expiriment with the level of gloss reduction. Chose the color carefully. Dark or light color coordinated metallics that are flattened can give a very nice touch to the finished project.

Roostmonkey Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I agree, semi will look better. Is that blue overspray on you and everything else in the pic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, its just the way the pictures came out, they were taken with my cell. I will post some better picures once its all done with a real camera.

jeffer949 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 on mine i went satin black on the plastic pieces around the tail lights but my chrome trim had seen better days so i painted those gloss black. I think it came out really nice and the difference in gloss makes it look sharp here is the only picture i could find Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Globerunner513 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I used some gunmetal wheel paint from NAPA I had lying around on the rear panel. Turned out great for me. I had a semi-black on there before. EDIT I thought that color looked familiar! haha my color is the B17 daytona blue as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
