My Bus is PAINTED!!!

[C.A.R.]

Apart from a couple of minor blemishes that will be attended to after I reassemble the car,

it's come out GREAT!

No comes reassembly... I'm just wondering how far to go with it now

your bus looks like a Z to me

 

did you paint it yourself? looks like a good job.

Looks good. You didn't want to paint the back with matching colors? Still looks good.

Haha, Thanks George.

No I didn't paint it myself - I got my local panel shop/mate to spray it.

Thanks Koopa.

I'm (personally) not a fan of matching the rear light panel with the body colour.

I'll be getting it repainted Charcoal, shortly.

Lurch what colour is that?

It looks exactly like the one sitting in my driveway,

or it is definately the closest colour any other zed has to mine.

At least you can be assured that I like it.

I'd call that "Black Cherry".  Our old family car was a 1998 Altima and the color looked Very similar to that.

[C.A.R.]

I picked it out of the colour chart - I wanted something a bit lighter then the old colour.

It's 'Protech FH65' colour - that's all I know

 

Cheers for the comments guys

is that an american thing? i seriously don't recall seeing more than one Z on our shores with colour coded rear panel. i can't say i'm a fan of it either. i love how it breaks up the colour.

[JP240z]

Lurch, at the next viczcar meet I make it to, we seriously have to compare colours!

That looks so similiar its not funny.

However I'm not sure when the next meet I will make is, as I just lost my licence for 4 months.

No, it's not a North American thing. I've only seen a few with matching colors and I personally liked the way it looked on it. Although I can also see how it's nice to have a little bit of contrast. Here is an example.

 

[C.A.R.]

Yeah, It's all down to personal taste.

 

JP, that's bad luck mate

Hopefully you'll be able to make it to a summer meeting & we can compare.

Though it's possible the camera makes it look darker then it really is...

[JP240z]

Yeah.... havent checked to see when the next meeting is, but if its within the next 23 days, I might be able to hit it up.

Definately stolen my zed colour though...

Although I think mine was a Toyota colour.

Next meeting is this Wednesday. 7:30pm at 5/54 Howleys Rd, Notting Hill which is just off Ferntree Gully Rd also near the back of Monash Uni Clayton Campus.
