| I got a local body shop to paint my car for me at a very reasonable price, they also fixed the scrapes and dents from the previous grandma who owned the car when she drove through her metal gate (dented both sides of the car). I took off the roof spears and welded the holes up, and did a lot of other tear down work before bring it to them. The top is Nissan G10 paint code, the bottom is the stock DGGM, in direct sunlight you can really see the difference, but in the shade the G10 has a green metallic flake and the colors sort of blend together. The DGGM also came out a little more grey than original, but that is fine. Now its time to tint the windows and get some rubber for the 17inch impala ss wheels i got on craigslist. Oh and a flat badge sure would be nice, but damn are those hard to come by. and AFTER!!! | |
