not sure why there's two codes for the gray....but this should get you started. Sorry to hear about that

5G7 is the paint code for that two-tone scheme.

FG0 is the green and 463 is the grey.

thanks for clearing that up...I referenced the paint chart that you seem to post daily for those who are unable to search....So that's what the 5G7 in my VIN means.......

Please don't murder it because of rust.
It's not the fault of the car that it developed cancer. Give it some chemotherapy and keep it on the road! Seriously find a friend that can replace sheetmetal and framerails, and cut out the rust.

***CrimsonRockett*** · 10-16-2008, 08:52 AM

^Perfect opportunity to learn how to weld as well.

I can't wait to start installing stuff on the coupe.

Trying to gather pennies for parts...

...or give the car to me. I'll make sure the sun continues to shine on an original two-tone.

*sexy coupes*

You could just give it to me.

gilby7887 · 10-26-2008, 10:15 PM

posted i'd say a month ago, a shitty looking coupe well this is what i looks like now, shaved the side markers and antenna. The paint is OEM two tone with a silver metallic in it, lots of body work and Stance GR+ coils, S14 seats.

Plenty more to do

***CrimsonRockett*** · 10-27-2008, 12:01 AM

You're missing the black tape.

Without it, two tones look like crap.

derek_s13 · 10-27-2008, 01:04 AM

x2 on black striping. needs it.

also, i don't dig the no front sidemarker, but whatever. fresh paint is nice.

**mrmephistopheles** · 10-27-2008, 03:17 AM

Yeah, the missing sidemarkers thing is really putting me off, and I'll also echo the need for a black stripe.

gilby7887 · 10-27-2008, 03:08 PM

black stripe is coming in tomorrow and side marker i'm trying to find on local,
jeeez these pics are pretty much right after it was finished painting it. gimmie a break >,<

I meant the sidemarkers, not the turnsignal. I'm not a fan of shaved turnsignals.
180sx and Silvia didn't have rear markers from the factory, so that makes sense to me - if it's a 240SX, leave the fronts at least.

txrxs · 11-08-2008, 02:17 PM

Oh no, you've ruined another two tone:

96Turbo · 11-08-2008, 04:24 PM

^^yea...i think it looks pretty fuckin clean. Show pics of the front bumper if/when you two tone it. Still weighing my options with 2tone & pop up front end

txrxs · 11-08-2008, 05:59 PM

I'm getting it painted like this:

The kits lines are a little off by design but I think it will work.

looks good, i like popup on two tones

tr4c3 · 11-09-2008, 09:23 AM

Someone help me find a kaDE so I can get my two tone running and ready for the turbo build!

txrxs · 11-09-2008, 04:43 PM

This is why i can't have nice things:

I was at a stop light on pendelton pike and there was a van behind me also stopped. A s10 hit the van at about 30mph and then I got hit by the van. As I got out of the car the I heard the s10 like pealing out trying to take off, I tried to stop them but they swerved towards me. All I could do was kick the shit out of the fender as they flew by. So basically a hit and run. Well at least I got to drive it one day with kit.

Z_Spool · 11-09-2008, 05:28 PM

An S10? Shoulda jumped in his bed.

sucks to hear.

tr4c3 · 11-09-2008, 07:07 PM

Damn man, so sorry to hear that, at least you are okay though. Hopefully insurance will fix the car or you can part it out worse comes to worse so it wouldn't be going to waste.
