NBM = navy blue metallic?
I picked up an 86 Iroc last week that is in dire need of a paint job. I've put the 383 project on hold for awhile until i blow up my current 350.
The Roc needs paint badly and i'm thinking about NBM. What does everyone think? Only have to pay for the paint. GF's uncle paint's car's for a living.

I painted mine NBM.


I'm planning on selling my hood in a few months to put a stock flat hood back on. I'm also gonna lower it and put a set of 17" wheels as soon as I can afford it. The T56 is sitting in the garage and begging to be installed. Basically, I want to de-hillbilly my car. I've had enough of the "drag racing" look.

Heh, nice car. I came real close to putting drag stars on my car when I built it a couple years ago.
I didn't mean to insult anybody's car, I should have chosen better words.
I guess I want to "modernize" my ride. How's that?

My 87 SC was black saphire blue witch is a midnight blue metallic color. I am trying to decide on whether to repaint the original color or the blue metallic on the new Porsche Turbo S SUV. dark-med metallic blue is one of the best looking colors on thirdgens! Some pics would make the decision alot easier though. thanks UnstableAviator!
