Official Black Sapphire Pearl & Blue Onyx Pearl ISx50 Thread
#48
Sorry to dig up an old thread, but it seems to me like there aren't much BSP owners around. Most of the BSP don't have much mods and I haven't seen people selling BSP stuff on forum even though I'm pretty new.
I'm contemplating whether to buy a BSP body kit(used or first hand) cause I might have a hard time selling it in the future.
I'm slightly leaning towards buying any colored bodykit and wrapping it in carbon fibre 3m<-- If I do this, I'm probably going to get a cf hood, something like.

gonna wrap my top and trunk as well. any opinions?
Right now I've only seen 3 types of wheels. Chrome/OEM silver graphite and gold. Does anyone have any pictures of black chrome/powdercoat/funky colors?

thats what makes us special we are not like every lexus out there black, white, and silver, i have chrome wheels now but ill be getting new work wheels soon machined silver with chrome liip, ill take pics when i get them in from japan. magicks you can always photoshop rims to your car, and i honestly dont know about the carbon fiber on these cars, but im not a hater do your thang

Thats the thing. Special = rare = hard to buy bodykit. Even harder to sell them in the future. I would like to photoshop, but our car has a everchanging color Blue in the day, black at night, sometimes even purplish.

Won first place in a car show and it was the paint color that got the most attention!
Hi Guys,
Since I had my car painted Black Sapphire I entered it into a car show this weekend. Well needless to say I won first place beating out the jaguar....2010camaro and even a 1969 mustang lol. Everyone kept asking what the color was and loved it. Black Sapphire is not a comon color I'm finding out even in the custom car shows lol. Again thanks to all of you who posted pictures that helped me to decide on the color =).

Add me to the list of happy Black Sapphire Pearl owners. Was looking at the red or gray and saw this color in showroom. At first I thought it was black, then noticed it changed in the light to dark blue - sold me on the spot. Also found two diecast Black Sapphire Pearl 1/25 scale models on eBay I bought for my G-scale garden railway. Here are two vendors if anyone is interested. They refer to them as blue or navy blue, but side by side with my car the color is identical.
