    paint costs a lot more and isn't reversible if you decide to change it.

    Looks good.. I think matte, to match the wheels.. Gloss could make it look like too much is happening

    I agree with passat123 although I don't know whether that is overdoing it. You don't want to stuff up the good image that R36's have

    Nothing, as I did it my self, I work for the manufacturer.. It took me about 3-4hrs to complete as it is a bit fiddly and I removed the fog lights.
