    interesting, I would do a Satin Black instead of a true flat black to distinguish it from car paint from primer, should look good.

    General Idea, sorry I just felt like whoring tonight, drop me a PM if you think it is too much clutter, thanks.

    This one is pretty cool, I believe the hood, roof and wing is shiny where rest of the body is a flat color.

    Holy massive balls! That's cool, but what a decisive thing to do to a car! Can't wait to see it!

    I wish I could post pictures of the new AMG Black I did some photoshop work on... But sadly they are still classified and I'll get sued... And they changed a bunch so they'd know EXACTLY where they came from because I have the only photos of this prototype...

    very nice! I want to do this to the coupe...what is the color code of the paint? Any other info whats needed, DIY writeup?

    I will do a write up when i finish it.. Its a rattle can job for the books.. If you take your time with it and do all the prep it will come out looking like a professional job. I have so many dings in my passenger door from careless people im trying to fill so its taking a bit longer.. I will keep everyone up to date on the progress

    Really? I saw one the other day up at Gran Turismo? He was one of the wide receivers for the Falcons. Still had dealer plates on it. It sounded like crap but looked freaking bad ass!

    what brand paint did you use? Any temp rating? I know in the summer that black can reach temps upwards of 140 degrees.

    Its just krylon flat black. I used some automotive paint first but it wasnt laying down right. It was like all spotted and blotchy looking. This is the only pait that I could get to lay down decently..
