Thanks man. I also have veteran plates on it being ex-Navy myself.

Here's satin courtesy of a buddy. He thinks gloss would look better and match the shiny windows. I'm not so sure.

I'm not feeling the glossy idea either. I'm also not liking the contrast between my wheels and the roof black. If we could match the two up, I think it would work good.

Might be surprised.. I think the gloss would look good. Look around therea actually a lot of satin..matte..flat/gloss paint schemes and they look sick.

There are a lot of Ex- military on this site...
How did you guys get kicked out? You should hold yourselves to higher standards. You did serve proudly, Right?

I personally am a FORMER Marine. Honorably Discharged. Once a Marine, Aways...

But you guys are probably proud of your Ex-Wives, Ex-Girlfriends, Ex-business partners...

That car looks bad a$$.

Not feeling the color at all, but to each his own. I would have thought the car would be flat grey like the navy ships, or even flat blue. I agree with others that gloss black would clash with the theme you have. Have you thought about satin black stripes on it?

Is that a U.S. Army Corvette? That's Army green. I'd add some light green and light brown colors to make camouflage.

Here's a quick one I did. I made the window a little darker and added black to the top part of the mirror.
