i am wondering that did anyone paint the body kit yourself?? and what kind of paint did you use?? is it possible though??

thanks

 

I'm sure its possible if you really want

I dont know where to buy the flex agents for the paint, but I'd use some primer (sand and prep the kit first) then give it a few good coats of paint that matches your paint.. wait for it to fully dry then put another few coats of clearcoat on top

when you hit anything or scrape, the paint will start to wrinkle and crease... its annoying- mine did that because the shop didnt use paint with a flexi agent

 

I tried but it came out lookign liek hell. The paint I used was not shiny like the oem paint. I used flex primer, then color matched paint an then I clear coated it. Ended up taking it to a shop and had them do it

 

If you live in winterland you may want to mix the clear coat with the paint prior to painting the car, if you put many coats of clear after you painted the car, it have tendency to crack under very cold weather. For the paint you may want to use urethane or you may check what Nissan use but I doubt they use urethane.

Emax--

What did it run you to have the kit painted?

 

Well the rear and sides where painted for $200. Then like 6 months later I got the front lip and had it painted, it cost me another $200 If I had it all painnted at once it would have probably been $250ish.

 

How bad was the install?

 

The sides and rear where very easy to install. The front was anoteher story, since I used a 2000 lip I had to do some modifications.

 

I can imagine that it was more than a few mods..lol! You are still the only one with the Aero ic.
