Hi, I wanted to put this topic in another place then the one i have done with the headlight conversion !

I would like to know if you have seen any Special Paint on Nx 2000 or if you have any of them ? Have you any suggestions ??

Any pictures ?


I though of doing a 2 color paint job ! Like the Top in one and the Down in another one ! like Black/Yellow or Yellow/Black ! or Black/Gold or Gold/Black ! Any other Suggestions ? or any other kind of Styles or anything ?

like a Woosh coming from the wheels to the back ? anything ?

Ya, stick with one color man, 2 tone cars are way too tacky, even when its done right, it still looks stupid, find a nice color and stick to it.

Man, just think if you went with a 2 tone black and yellow. with the body style of the NX, your gonna look like you driving a huge bumble bee!!!! Im not trying to down the looks of the NX, cause i Love em, but man, just think aout it. If you can, take a pic to some kind of paint program and experiment on there, or the best thing to do is to look at pic archives to get a good idea. Its your car so do what you wanna do, this is just my, and many others opinions. do what makes you happy!!

Are you telling me that this car color style look bad ? That'sa 2 tone color isn't it ???

So where's the problem ??? Replace the Blue with Black and the Yellow with gold or let it like that and it should be nice ! with Yellow tint windows too ? no ?? may be not the wing and bumper but it's nice !

Wow! Now THAT is an evil egg!! I like the front treatment except for the hood. The color is weird, and I don't like the rear, but it is very different.

Ya, its a nice car, but like i said, i dont like 2 tone paint jobs, just a personal thing, the whole thing orange would look way better. but if you want to get attention, then i guess thats the way to go. like i said earlier, its your car, do what u wanna do.

Paint it black.

ALL black.

Two-tone just doesn't cut it, IMHO. Let the car's lines speak for themselves. And, the lines of a NX2K are nice.

Yellow window tint? Oh no, no, no.

I couldn't have said it better myself.

I wish I had the extra funds to paint my car all black. At least my wheels are painted black! http://www.sr20deforum.com/NonCGI/smile.gif

You think that the NX2000 lines are nice ? wich one ???

I really like the Nx performance and it's T-Top and it's interior and practicity ! But the look of it I do not like it all ! Check the HeadLiths and the engine roof (don't remember the english word). That's ugly ! I like what the NX look by the side but not by the front.

so ! what were your meaning by lines ?

i'll have to be blunt with this..

that NX looks hideous. Two tones are so not a good look. are you confused as to what color you want? not to be harsh, but just pick a color and (maybe) accent it with another. don't go half and half on it.

*shudder* i'm still in shock from that picture. holy god! make it go away! http://www.sr20deforum.com/NonCGI/eek.gif

This is my old Pulsar. Car was beat to hell with dents and had horrible black paint (woman who had it before me didn't take care of it). I got all the dents taken out and got it repainted for $550 (My dad's friend owns a body shop). It wasn't fast, but it sure got noticed! http://www.sr20deforum.com/NonCGI/biggrin.gif
