for anyone interested in paint, i used these guys. http://www.automotivetouchup.com

just look up your paint code and they can send some ready to spray paint in a can or paint in a rattle can (which is what i used). oem look for sure

I used 2 cans and a little out of a third. It can be done with 2 cans though if you're careful.

I just swapped in 25mm spacers in the rear and WOW. What a huge change in look. Wheels sit flush in the rear and look plain sick...

now I just need to save up for a second set of wheels and some WIDE rubber.

any slammed evos running 18X10 with some 295/305 tire out there?

thats the plan

Thats actually a great idea. Any wheels that have caught your eye? I have never looked for a wheel that big before.

Ill start looking around the 350z forums im sure they have some sick setups there.

Are you running wider wheels n the rear then in the front? Isn't your rear diff gonna give up the ghost running 2 different width wheels?
