My first project

Well here it is not much yet as I just dont have alot of times and the right tools for this kinda stuff. So far I have started to shave the door handles(not shown yet) made a sunroof (shown below). Any one have a good paint scheme for it? Tell me what you think.

PS. Dont laugh if my sunroof is not too good becasue I had to use my pocket knife.

I now have my custom exhaust almost done still have to close off the right exhaust hole.

Will these led lights i got off ebay work for a custom neon underglow?

orange with black stripe?
and are you gonna make the stripe one single thick/skinny stripe? or are you gonna go with two thick/skinny stripes? will they be centered or offset like the mustang i did?

lots of possibilities with just the stripe alone...

and for color, my friend owns a beautiful silver G35... if you could find a paint that has that silver metalic flake look... i'd go that route w/ grey or black stripes...

Yea i have tons of old car paint just sitting in my bassment from when my dad painted cars so finding a silver should not be hard. And for the stripes i was thinking either two skinny ones down the middle or one thick one down the middle.

Do you happen to know where i can get two new headlight covers?

i just passed up two used G35 chassis/bodies... didnt take notice to their headlamp condition but if i run by the store and they are still there maybe i'll pick them up... might be another week till i get a chance tho... =/...

and i'd go with the two thin stripes down the middle... think it would look great...
