Hey guys, this is the G35 I fried, (or otherwise messed up) and whilst waiting for a new board to somehow fall into my lap I painted it today with my new Mighty Mini I got today. It is winter here in Kentucky, (duh) and with my shop doors wide open, heaters on, and box cut up for a cheap spray booth, I painted it... Plans include 6 cell w/o destroying the board and other stuff to make a decent car to play with during time when my crawlers are in the shop.

There are a couple of rough spots, but that blue looks great on the car. Great color choice.

Hm... I want a metalic sky blue G35 with a yellow-gold metal flake cross on the top, and three crowns on the hood. That would be the ****.

Real nice paint job. But may I suggest painting the hood and rear spoiler black just to add a little more [Cant think of word]. But great work!!

is there any clearcoat on that G? if not i suggest you spray some on, it makes a huge difference in the shine.

Thats what I was thinking, but do they make a premixed acrylic clear coat? I am going to paint the hood black asap, or use bodo's tut for carbon fiber...I can now lol............but I don't have any paint of that color atm.

Here it is, with wheels, as it is:
