Paint ideas

Hello everyone!

i just got a white 2010 g37x coupe about 3 weeks ago and it's pretty much 100% stock right now. (Aside from the tinted windows that i just got done last week) I'm thinking Of getting the emblems painted candy apple red with a gold base. My old Honda is painted the exact same color. I'm just thinking of different combos of how I can incorporate the color onto my new g37. Maybe paint the grill black and the Infiniti symbol candy apple red. Or maybe paint the grill and the Infiniti emblem candy apple red. I also want to paint the calipers to match the emblems.

Just exploring my options right now. Any suggestions would be helpful!

^ lol!

g37 is generally considered to be a lot more classy than a civic. Any civic. So the only thing I'll say here is - don't rice it out.
Other than that - it's your car, your choice, do what you like with it. I've seen some crazy color combos that actually work pretty well (although most look like trash).

Any and all the advice you'll get here will be extremely subjective.
Your best bet is to go into the coupe section of the forum and start looking through picture threads like "show off your coupes". You'll get A LOT of ideas just from that and it'll give you a pretty good understanding as to what Not to do as well.

Excellent advice Kiseliok!

@Harleen...
Also, post a pic of the Civic. It will help with the advice about the colorway you're considering
