Default New Paint for 93 civic 4dr

Hey,

How do you guys feel about the G35 red? It is the color I am leaning towards when I take my car to be painted in a few weeks. Here are a couple shots of how things look now...

hmmm... i haven't seen a new m3 that's red yet, except in magazines. i'll keep my eyes open though and check it out. i trust bmw to pick a decent red for thier hot-rods though so i'm sure its pretty sweet looking.

also... i'm sticking with a similiar red so i don't have to paint the door jams, engine bay, or hood inner.

Honestly, it does not line up 100% with the fenders. To get the fenders to meet the bumper I'm drilling into the bumper flange, and using a nut/bolt/washer to get them to mate. I'll post pics when I'm done.

Well. I think I've chosen *drum roll* Laser Red for the Infiniti G35 coupe. The car goes in June 23rd and should be out in time for my birthday on June 29th.

I'll post tons of pictures then...
