The car is not complete yet, the front lip (Stillen), Rear Stillen pieces, spoiler and passenger mirror are yet to be painted and installed. Just wanted to throw this up and get some feed back.

the paintjob looks pretty hot, just not really feelin the gas cap thing.. you should also redo your tails, and make the clear part go all the way to the end, it would look better. the car looks good though

Nice work. I noticed you shaved the keyhole on the trunk. looks very clean in the back. Just wondering why you didn't go on and shave the antenna while you were at it?

PPG Lamborghini Orange.

The rest of the car will be finished this weekend while I'm in Spain. I also had a lot of the dash pieces painted to match. When I get back and everything's cleaned up I'll snap some more shots.

It has yet to be cut/buffed and all that as well. I agree, it will look a lot better once the rest of the kit is installed. Right now it looks to stock to be such a bright color.

Oh yeah, the sideskirts are molded on as well.

car looks pretty good.. was their any pearl sprayed on or just PPG lambo orange? The stillen altima has some yellow and red pearl which makes it really stand out.. the orange alone looks somewhat flat, but it could also just be that it's not buffed and waxed.

Yeah, they used 2 bottles of pearl. In the sunlight the pearl stands out alot more. I'm assuming that it will stand out even more when it gets cut/buffed.

The car looks great in person. It is definitely bright orange. The pictures do not really do it much justice.

I have a few pics of his car up on my pictures from the NW Maxima 5/18 meet. You can find them here: http://www.daviddenmark.com/gallery/...lbum01&page=1.
