reeceybeaney Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 (edited) As some may have seen from my build post...: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/113666-so-it-begins-my-new-toy-adviceopinions-appreciated/#entry1709874 ...I managed to remove the old damaged front carbon splitter at the weekend... hope I made the right decision... but now I need the bumper resprayed as it decided to pull half the paint off with it The zed will be going off for the bumper spray ASAP and was wondering if anyone would get it sprayed differently rather than just back to original. I have seen that some spray the bottom centre part of the bumper black? Zunsport Grille to go on but I still need some opinions and what to do next , I need some inspiration as I don't see many sunset orange zeds on the forum or about locally!

valy Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 if you are planning to keep your front bumper stock then go for a respray if you think there might be a lip out there that floats your boat it may well worth getting one before the respray,check on tarmacsportz my Zed was ginger and I had the Zunsport added on and a GT style front lip in black gloss which at the time I thought it looked good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHEZZA Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 You'll most certainly have to have the Bonnet and wings blended in as it's very hard to get a colour match. Which will sort that arch rust you have at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad knows a bloke who's done a lot of paintwork for him on some of his cars, so hopefully he will get it sorted and do a good job of it too! Yes bye bye rust 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliverB Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Met a guy at the MK meet on Tuesday and he had a new bumper sprayed to match his ginger Z, impeccable match and the other panels/bonnet weren't touched. Can be done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldel Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Looks like a black zunsport grill fitted to the front. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm referring to the Zunsport front grille as I'm not a fan of the plastic standard grille and think it's a nice subtle touch without going too crazy (and spending too much money!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
