Looks good one some cars

In Hollywood I saw a flat black Lotus Elise which looked ok

5 min later I saw a flat black MB SLR which looked fantastic

I dont really like the SLR in silver but in flat black it was totally a Batmobile

You might want to check with the USAF and see where they get their radar absorbing coating...

i think it would look great.

just buy all new panels that are ready for primer, which is flat black. that way if you want to switch back, you have your stock panels saved.

Rob & Big called and they would like to kick you in the nuts for stealing their idea.

If you "murder out" the vette it will be an original. Do what makes you happy.

Here is a pick of Rob Dyrdek's 07 Tahoe "Murdered Out".

Hip-Hop artist/producer Pharrel Williams drives a matte Blk SLR around town, I've seen the car at clubs and parties.

I have flat black SS striped on my Silverado SS. Black on gloss black.

Looked really cool till the shiny marks left in the flat black took over. Now it's more of a matte black. Meh...

i was gonna paint mine matte black and still might. i was talkin to my body shop guy and he says that that paint is kinda pricey and hard to do it right. i had my hood painted that color once on one of my other cars and it was so hard to take care of.

on another note i dont know whos car this is but it is sick and i want it.
