update?!!

Looks great - not many NSX owners have the stones to do this! Congrats!

I always build my cars for ME, not for resale value. Otherwise, I guess we might as well all drive silver Chevy Malibus...

I'll respray my Berlina Black to Ferrari Tour de France Blue or Maserati Blue Oceano one day:

Blue Oceano

i'm too late to chime in, but... championship white! :biggrin:

i have a formula red, so good job... my car is more unique by 1 car. lol.

any respray will hurt resale because people start to wonder about accidents and what-not... original paint is a big seller... but done right, it will certainly fetch a good amount of money to the right buyer. if i could afford to do it right, i would certainly change the color to my liking. its your car, you should certainly enjoy it.

Which LED driving lights are those? I like where they are mounted++

Great job and a very nice color. Love the hood change and on the whole a very clean and super sharp NSX. Honestly it's a better color than some of the stock NSX colors of the past. Like I've never been a fan of the green or so called purple that they came out with. Not much depth to the paint in my opinion. Yours looks extremely good. Now if I would have done that to my 91, the only difference would be me keeping the original car panels except for the rear lower valance and also painting the top black like the original two tone setup for that year. I think with the color red you picked it would be a good match. Great job and enjoy your car.

P.S. As for the resale value, I wouldn't worry. Today's NSX buyer isn't like the older buyer when the car first came out. Most of the newer buyers are into bling and they modify the cars appearance in so many ways, that the resale will never be what most people think it should be. Hell some people think you'll hurt the resale value if you change the brand of the replacement tires you use. Remember, the car is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. (I'm not talking about dealers/robbers here) I agree with everyone who says modify YOUR car the way you want it. The rest will take care of itself.

great points here imo.

just tinted my headlights with candy blue and type R wing with candy red ...what do you guys think?? after this the car will let sand down and buff

 

[curtsr]

I wasn't inclined to agree on CAR initially but the color turned out nice and maybe surprised you too after your initial shock. What really sealed the deal were the previous details like the R wing tinted CAR.

I do agree with socold57 that I might have shot the whole hood. Then again, seeing what you did with the wing at the rear might offset that and create a nice balance in person.

At any rate, really nice execution and original vision. Great job!

The car cf wing looks pimp IMO

Just curious - why didn't you just remove the two bolts and take the headlights off the car to do the work rather than taping everything up around them??

because i have to repaint some of the area that is scratched as u can see in the picture.

 

[OddJob]

I almost bought that car years ago. It took a while to sell, but someone snagged it eventually. The mods to the trunk held me back.

Speaking of the trunk, what are those in the white circular areas to either side of the scuba tank?

Pics of the car? In the trunk?
