should i paint now or wait after winter. i am in canada by the way, so winter is coming pretty soon

 

paint early, paint often is what i always say.
wait till later.
oh and

 

I would wait untill after....
Why paint your car right before really harsh weather??????????

 

paint during?

 

why would paint it before winter?

 

why would you paint it before winter, after the harsh weather, car going to look like it didnt even see paint.. Wait till spring blooms in

 

dont forget paint is on salts menu

yea paint after winter you will be happy u did

-Tyler

 

Black and Tan... its not just for drinking anymore!
so uh, why is your name GreenVQ30?

 

Definitely wait until after the winter. Especially since you live in Canada. What color are you painting it?

 

gonna paint it green cause it's the easy way out.

 

I remember you posting pics on TMEC...I would wait until after winter so the new paint has one year less of road salt and ice eating at it. Plus, since it will be cold out you won't be able to properly detail it and show it off!

 

ya eh, but damn car looks so ugly, ya i will wait after winter, plus maybe i'll have some cash by then get a body kit

 

look on the driver side rear bumper, where the light reflects.
Clearly its a dark green

 

i just painted mine before the winter, and my 3rd gen has been sitting for 2 yrs with a new paint job and it still looks great if i wash it.

 

^^^what the crap is painted on ur hood?

 

^^^looks like the screensaver with all the pipes ....nice 2-tone though.

 

Nice job!...did you get your paint job done in your town?....HOw much did that run you. P.M me with details please

 

yeah i seriously like that two tone...but dude the hood???

 

i guess so ... looks black on my monitor.

 

I'de save some more money up and get a really nice paint job. Unless you really like that green color.

 

last i checked i only have to make myself happy.

dont be hatin............

 

wait till after winter

 

aiight g whatever floats ur boat...

 

looking nice shavedmax, love how you exclude yourself from being same as others... would love to see that 3rd gen too :-)

 

from experience, paint it after winter. i painted mine before and it took a beating that 1 winter.

 

same goes for your interior rice boy.

 

After winter, which will also allow you to save up a little more for a better paintjob. =)

That was an awesome response. Awesome two-tone, weird pattern on hood--if you like it, f*ck the rest. Great handiwork though.

 

yeah, for some reason i didnt want to be one of the 60-70% of black on black 4th gens on here. there's a pic of my 3rd gen on 20's. i have pics of it when i had 18's on my website.

sorry GreenVQ30 for jacking your thread. i was just trying to let you know how i felt about pre winter paint. im sure the winters are alot rougher up there, but if you protect it, itll be fine. otherwise you;d have to drive around 2 tone or primed. been there done that.

 

wait 'til spring

 

listen to shaved max, he is the true king of exterior knowledge...well him and Tom NJMaxseltd

but neways i would def paint the car after winter, i mean.. its better to come out looking fresh out of hibernation breaking necks

btw i love the paint on the 4th gen ShavedmAx! what color is taht? that shiet shines man, i got to talk to your painter, i need a paintjob like that

 

I have the same problem except i just need to paint both my driver side fenders... The thing is I don't want it to be much of a difference in color between the fenders and body..... Should I just paint the whole car over?

 

What color green are you painting it? I hope you find something classy, to remind people that the Maxima is a flagship sedan as well as a four door sports car. I'm not a fan of the elecric lime green Honduh ricers running around, but that's just me.
