Thinking of re-painting car
 
Hey all,

I'm thinking of re-painting my car to military green:

I'm not sure though... Should I do this or not?

If you want a matte color why not just wrap or plasti dip?

Ya that car is definitely wrapped. I don't think any of the show FR-S/BRZ have been repainted.

Just do a vinyl wrap. That way if you get sick of it or go to sell it you can just peel the vinyl off. Painting a car a different color usually ruins the resale value.

That is 150% a wrap 'cause they wrapped right over the marker light lol.

Yeah, I remember that 'Baboon butt red' that was on the prototype. That was a beautiful color. My firestorm doesn't hold a candle to that color.

At least until he get the bill for the color. 1 gallon of BRZ lightning red in Dupont's chromabase cost $750 just for the red. Non-reduced!
