ok, well dais a different one to the one mr. johnson has, but same color

[turbo_beast369]

so wait, there are two matte blue Navaras then...

[eliteauto]

sMASH did you google, "ugliest matte paint jobs"?

[sMASH]

believe it or not, there were uglier... they did not get the rims, trims, lines, color schemes meshing right. some of these i like, but really to show variation and the possibilities of different things. u could know what works with what and what not. one i don't like is the army green audi, just because the color is the wrong one for that car.

i have seen a few locally, and all were really great. the maddest one was this black cedia wagon with drift trims on it. may be i'll see it again to take pics.

Looking to sell it soon, if you may know anyone interested. Hoping to get close to 200K for it.

Doodle, I own a Navara as well, I pass you on the creek multiple times (usually heading opposite directions), I am a big fan of what you did with your Navara... That thing does look really hard! I have an appointment in January to get my Navara painted in Quarry Village, Siparia. I am going for the Matte finish as well, but in Black/Dark Grey. I would not say that I am unworried about the final product, I have seen to many Matte paint jobs done poorly not to be worried, so I got my fingers crossed that my painter can execute the job properly, but yours is a work of perfection!

Yea getting it done by Dan, his son Daryn the painter came highly recommended. But I don't think he has ever done a Matte vehicle like the Blue Navara, I am hoping he could execute the job to achieve the look I want.

^ price and/or contact info?

[Max De Mercillus]

^ price and/or contact info?

Dan's autobody shop
Painter name is Daryn (Dan's Son)
La Brea Trace Quarry Village, Siparia
I pass that area for work every week, so I never really had to get a phone#, you are going to have to check him for a quote on your particular vehicle. What I can say is that his pricing was reasonable to me and I saw a Hilux he did in Santa Flora that came out looking real bess.

I can't really personally vouch for their work yet because my vehicle will be painted in January, when the vehicle is done, I will post pictures and you can judge the work. But the Blue Navara everyone is talking about was apparently done by a shop called Barely Legal by a painter named Aleem. Don't know if Aleem's prices are reasonable or not, but his work is brilliant.

[Rooki3]

better u go with barely legal

[nervewrecker]

Saw a matte green 2 door datsun pickup and was wondering if that color legal (looks kinda close to the army vehicles).
Anywhere sells matte vinyl btw? What's the prices like? Can paint be done to match the vinyl? (i ain't feel I have the skill to do my front bumper).

Edit: I know dan, does good work (donno about the matte vehicles though). Heard his prices kinda hot, same with aleem.

[nervewrecker]

This color legal?

[Centric]

^ Wherever it from, it probably is. Or isn't. Its probably not.

[nervewrecker]

I mean legal for here, trinidad. saw a van with it, would like to drop it unto my ride too.

[Centric]

That color is legal in a tin. But who cares about the law in trinidad?

[turbo_beast369]

That green looks good tho...or maybe it's because it's a Lambo lol

I doh mind paying the price for a really neat matte paint job once it's done properly...meaning disassembling required body parts, painting, applying matte clear evenly then re-assembling...I doh like the idea of using tape all over especially on window and roof panels etc

[nervewrecker]

^^^

Vinyl easy if is mainly flat surface, those door mouldings is pressure to cover though.
There are lots of vehicles driving around with full body wraps and no peeling / headache etc.....plus if I vinyl it....I have nobody to pay

That color is legal in a tin. But who cares about the law in trinidad?

I do.
I want to continue being able to pass through road blocks without any worries of being charged.
When the officer comes to my window and I politely greet them with a smile, hand over my documents and do all what they ask me to do. Then carry on along my merry way.
I intend to keep it that way but I am seeing vehicles on the road with colors close to that of the army vehicles. This color is really sweet.

[Centric]

^ and what makes you think those vehicles are legally painted?

[nervewrecker]

darn, looks like I keeping my normal color then

Its best to avoid getting on the wrong side of the police.
