I keep seeing these post-your-this-or-that threads. Since my first Corvette is black I figure I might as well throw it in here as well ...

You guessed it Plasti-Dip It is 2 gallons black, 1 gallon glossifier, with a dixie cup full of black to give it depth.

I cant believe I never commented in here. This was my car. Sold it mid 2016 but these pics are mine and the car belonged to me when taken. 2002 Mallett Hammer Z06 #02-009 This was the last black car I will own and part of the reason for selling it is impossible to keep clean black paint! but damn it looked good when clean!

Thanks! Damn that looks really good. I'm with you about wishing it was a tad wider. But it still looks good. I'm looking at the c7 product ones that seem like they might be exactly what I'm looking for.
