Anyone besides Creepy change the color of their X yet?

I'm thinkin This might be my next major mod sometime in the summer. I like the silver and all.....but then again there's a whole s**t ton of colors out there.....

what color would you paint yours? I'm thinkin a gross olive green.

BMW made a real sick minty forest green color a couple years ago, it's hard to describe but ill try and find a pic.

I would either go Atomic Orange or flat olive drab to give it that military look and maybe put some general stars on the hood or something goofy like that.

You should paint it pink stu. I've never seen a pink Xterra LOL

how bout this......paint yours pink and i'll try to prevent others/myself from punching you in the throat.








ha. just kidding. but seriously..........no.

I like this green a lot......and then black out the bumpers/headlights/rims all flat flat super flat black.

I would color my x with the 1999 honda civic SI blue

hahahahahaha......nice. I still claim that either donatello or michaelangelo are my favs.

You should do two tone like that little POS you posted. That would be kinda sweet. Going with a Gloss black upper half would look cool as hell on my rig.

i dunno.....i'm kinda thinkin the olive green with a whole lot of black accent is gonna look pretty badass......

I actually look at that color also (killer color), but I wanted to keep mine all nissan, so that's why I went 350Z blue. The other one I almost did was the House Of Color True Blue Pearl.

hey creepy.....when you painted yours - did you pull everything and do door jambs/engine compartment/interior....all the sheet metal?

If I could paint mine I would probably go with flat black. I don't know why but I think flat black cars look awesome.

x2....anything flat really. i like the hod rod "suede" looks a lot. primer is rad and easy to fix!! lol.

Everything got removed, I wanted it better than factory. When I say everything, I meen everything, doors, hood, the rack, every little bolt, every little rubber plug, wire harnesses, door glass and regulators, every peice of rubber, every piece or plastic, ect... I didn't want any over spray on anything (I hate that), lol, even the bottom of the X was taped off so there wouldn't be any overspray on it either. I didn't want any tapelines anywhere either, so everything was shot (inside and out) all at one time (this adds a huge amount of work and time, but well worth it). I fixed all the factory flaws that you see in all the 2nd gens also, like the spot weld dimples over the rear wheels on the quarters and such. I didn't paint the engine compartment though, because it's black from the factory on mine, and I wanted it to look like oem.

It's funny, I entered it in a car show last year and nobody could figure out why it was there, because it looks so factory, lol.

ha! nice. yeah.....i can understand the complete tear down. It's a lot of work (working on my mustang lately) but worth it. i just can't see having my DD down for that long. I might pull the interior and doors/hood to shoot everything.....guess i'll see when the time comes....

I have other rigs, so I didn't really care how long it took as long as I got what I wanted. (as close to perfect as you can get).

Now all the 2nd gen guys are all going to go out and look at their quarters and see the flaws in them, that they probably never noticed before, lol. (Sorry guys!).

Then of coarse some high dumb a$$ whacks right into it a month later, luckly didn't get into the paint, just the plastic.

yeah...thats the other thing. if i get a decent paint job done for cheap or do it myself for cheap.....i won't be as pissed if i F it up.

Candy apple red..... I wouldnt ever let it see a dirt path,gravel road, winter again though lol. I also kinda like the blocky old camo style like in black, white, and bright blue

yeah...thats the other thing. if i get a decent paint job done for cheap or do it myself for cheap.....i won't be as pissed if i F it up.

There's no such thing as a good cheap paint job anymore, lol.

I have over $1500 just in materials on that thing.:aufkopfhauen-big: (used to be able to do them for $500)

I tried my photoshop magic on a 2001 X. I turned it your olive green (more or less). I couldnt get some sections fo the hood, but you will get a sence of what it might look like.

Kawasaki green?

There's a lime green X rolling around Denver with a calmini rear tire carrier and front bumper, I think it looks cool. I don't plan on painting my X but If I was to pick a color I would paint the whole thing flat black, like Rob's Dyrdeck's Tahoe on Rob and Big. His shit looks so sick! BTW I got to chill with Rob at the DC Lab in Utah couple years ago, super talented skater.

I've always loved flat black.

It's funny that flat black was really cool in the 80's and now it's back, lol.

I think flat black is one of those old school colors that will always look badass.
