I've actually seen two 280ZXs painted LeMans Sunset. One is a 2+2 and it looked ok. Had ugly wheels on it and not lowered. The other was a 2-seater but the pics were taken before all the bumpers and trim went back on.

Agreed on the wheels. I think that the 2 seater would look better if they painted the iron cross wheels with the original gold accent, or matched the paint.
The 4 seater is going to have to make that paint shine before it ever looks good.
Speaking of which, anybody got any pics of the original gold Iron Cross wheels?? Just noticed that accent area isn't definitely defined by shape.

Centerlines=coolness, I almost got a set for my Z, but they were 14's, and I want 15's lol

And I do like that color... I think that if I didn't like the blue on my car so much, I'd probably go with that color lol

Not a fan of 2+2s, not a fan of ugly wheels, not a fan of repainting the car and then sticking the hideous faded black bumpers back on.. ahhh!


Nismo, that vette is sweet! Thinking of finally painting the primered beast?

lol, you do know that he posted two different cars, right?

And I definitely have to disagree with you on the bumpers, I love the stock bumpers (although mine are in pretty good shape and not faded lol), but I do plan on shaving the bumpers and the license plate mounting flange off in the future... lol

The dead giveaway on the 2cars is the missing rear signal lens on quarter panels of the 2+2, and the fact that the 2+2 is RHD.

I kind of agree with the faded bumpers. While the shape looks good on the car, repaint them black. Would look very nice.

Also, does anyone know the name of the colour blue used on the new 370z?

Anyone happen to know the paint code on that? Can't find it on any sites...
