title may be a bit misleading. But out of curiosity today I was looking through craigslist today for a used Q50 just to see if any were up and if so how much. Until I came across this...

I feel bad for that Q50.. painting over brand new factory paint.. I hope the owner doesnt find a shop so he doesnt ruin his car.

Or wrap it, like everyone else does who wants their car a different color does. Looks like paint and comes off when you get bored with it.

Surrey is notorious for messing up infinitis...from Gs all the way to FXs...

i bet its going to look like crap, i dont agree with painting over oem paint at all, plastidip i understand, wraps i i understand as well, but painting over brand new undamaged oem paint is plain stupid

Gold-Plated Infiniti
convertible plated with 24-carat gold was unveiled in March 2011 at a jewelers shop in Nanjing in the eastern Chinese province of Jiangsu.

According to local reports, it took five artisans four months to give the car its full bling.

The car was later towed away from outside the store for not having been properly registered.

Yes, real 24krt gold plated body parts

This makes me think what kind of people do these kind of things.... super desperately attention seeker??? How practical the car would be once they are gold plated? I bet it only takes less than 5 minutes in the parking lot before got stolen... (like the Porsche story above)

actually it will be cooler than any other color as gold will reflect most of the heat unlike other colors.
