spray some tire shine in the fenderwells. i think it looks ok, nothing special because you dont really have a theme or rims with it

Matte black is like the awkward/too skinny/too fat cute girl in high school. All conventional wisdom tells you it should be ugly and you should not like it. For some reason, though, it's gorgeous and you can't take your eyes off it.

Looks good. BUT the clear corners and chrome headlights look out of place....some black projectors or whistler modded headlights and black corners would look amazing!!!

sweet car man!

did they take apart the panels to paint or tape off everything and spray? Looks ok but get rid of the clear stuff and get smoked coners.

I think just shiney black wheels will look better than matte, especially if you put more black accents like others have said. I like it and think its gonna be a great car/theme once you get her all finished up.

It looks like its primed and ready for a nice basecoat/clearcoat now....


Really its not that bad but a older muscle car pulls off the look much better IMO than a newer sports car.

So, I'm outta here.

Don't put ALL BLACK wheels on it. Get a machined or polished lip. Ruff 278s or 281s in black with polished lip would look kickass. Also trade your headlights for the black projector headlights, paint the wheel wells black, lower it, and I think you'll find it hard to stop looking at your car.

I think it looks unique just needs a theme here are some things I would recomment:

-Stock whistler head lights
-Smoked clear corners
-Smoked side markers
-Lowering springs (slam it!)
-Black wheels with a polished lip
-Stainless rear inserts
