The paint on my 96 max is at the end of it's road. There's little nicks and scratches everywhere, and this big hole where I sanded off rust on the trunk lid. My spoiler had to be drilled off, so we're proly gonna grab a different colored one from the junk yard one of these days (holes covered in electrical tape for the past 2 months) . Overall my max looks really bad, and I love it enough to waste some money to fix it.

Im gonna do my own paint job, in a rental spray booth (if I can find one). Im not sure what style I should go with, heres a couple ideas:

jet black:
5% window tint
black rims
black paint with clearcoat
new black leather interior (my interior is starting to look a bit aged and it's tan)
some logo on hood (black rider/shadow/black widow/ect...)

colorful cop magnet:
some cool bright colored design I haven't thought up yet
nice shiny rims

anyone else got ideas?
where can I get that color changing paint?
What is your dream paint job?

 

good luck!

 

flat black............

 

The new bandwagon..

 

Chameleon

 

kermit's butt green

i would love an I30t that color

 

i love a not-too-shiny blue, or a dark red (i.e. kandy apple red), but if you can keep it clean, nothing beats a bran new black paint job

 

Airmattdogg's Lamborghini PPG Orange looks amazing on his Maxima.

 

viper blue.

 

large graphics, no need for paint.

 

mustang GT mineral gray. PIMP all the way !!

I'd say go with BMW Titanium Silver. Hands down one of the best factory paint jobs you will see on the road. It almost looks chrome like in direct sun. Very classy look too.

 

candy.... i'm candy red and love it... if u want something less showy, candy blue or candy silver or candy black is really nice...

 

I like this color

 

my friend is getting a pearlescent midnight blue on his 93 prelude. should look pretty good because hes going to go with a dark blue/black theme and mix in various carbon fiber pieces and gunmetal wheels.

 

oh how could I forget CHROME CHROME CHROME . . .

 

Yeah, that chrome paint is crazy. I have yet to see full pics of it though. Just those little clips as ads.

 

Yeah I too have not seen full pics of that Max. .. I believe it started its life off as a Rosewood Max, and it belonged to someone here on the org, but I may be wrong.

I also remember seeing a bunch of high-res pics of a totally chromed out 2004 Audi A8L over in Saudi (or somewhere around there). . . it looked simply amazing. Same goes with the chrome new Mercedes' pics (they had an E500, C320 wagon, SL55, CL55, all chromed out, anyone remember these?

 

Ludacris, you seriously think flat black is bandwagon? I'd very loosely agree with you. Baby blue, yellow and dark blue are more bandwagonesque in this area. I'd love to do flat black. Its easy to redo if you get scratches and its cheap.

 

Go with either the BMW M3 Blue that just came out, OR Acura Pepsi Blue Or The Changing color Chameliaon, ALLL GREAT COLORS!!!

 

Nothing can be better than the Sage Mist Green! =)

 

peral white

or sterling mist =)

 

 

im in love with sage mist green

 

Flat black is played out. Not so much on a max, but sooo many cars have are doing it. In Super Street they alone have done 2 cars with the flat black, a silvia and a wrx.

 

true to that brother, AMEN!

 

Gotta love the Majstic Blue....

In some lights it look purpleish....in some black and others blue....I love this color....

 

Yep, just like what the whole JDM and drift thing has become. Those light pastel colors were the bandwagon a few years ago here...flat black looks good when done right tho, esp on hot rods.

 

if u like black, try candy black... its really deep... jet black with a candy black coat... it looks almost like liquid

 

Red like the candy apple.. I've always been a fan of the Crimson Blaze Max's

 

i say diamond graphite, love it my dad got FX 45 w/that color its looks so good.

 

liquid metal silver



...i think it's a House Of Colors color

 

what I really want is something that stands out. As a person im not usually the one to try and fit in (I wore a recess-peices halloween costume from 4th grade to school once) . I want something cool that will stand out.

flat black: what is this stuff? krylon? how do I do it and what does it look like?

chrome: where can I buy the paint? (chrome sounds really cool)

bright colors: which color stands out the most?

color changing paint: where do I get this? what's it look like?

 

if i was repainting i'd do a midnight black. where it's black but in the light sparkels kinda metallic blue...black is hot.

to stand out i'd do red. look at the custom maxima red one. shame it was destroyed.

 

IMO, don't do anything but stock cause there will always be that speck of orignial color in the trunk, doorjambs, or engine bay. Maybe its not abig deal but that would ALWAYS annoy me.

 

im mainly doing a repaint cuz my paint is messed up, I just figured i'de make it look cool in the process

 

i like this FX45 Liquid Copper, i thought i saw a 4th gen with it on cardomain too

 

YES! BMW Carbon Black is sexy.

sh!tty pic
