I've seen a few blacked out cars around here, some look tough, it really needs to be a bigger car. Others look stupid, like a Civic. Small cars, just look like a wanabee.

I think my painter pulled it off 100%. I think the lines of the gxp carry the flat 100%.

I will say tho they it is the first and only car/truck I will paint flat black haha.
I had considered painting either the F250 or the 2500 HD the same as the car (for shows) but I don't have 15 hours a day
to clean them haha. Like Vemon, Stealth lived in a paint booth for 2 weeks!! I had hoped to of had her back to of at least enjoyed
2 months but it what it is.

My painter went over board on the body work but its straighter then the day it left the assembly plant.

He'* gone as far as saying this is a one off kind of like his flames. He will never lay pearls on flat again...

I think the flat black looks awesome on that car, but it would be too boring without the flames or something else to spice it up. Turned out great. I'm looking forward to more pictures as well.

Thanks !! everyone

On the Headlights the product is on back order...... I might just end up trying it out and not using it. my painter wanted to smoke the headlights but at what they cost to replace haha i opted out of that one.

More pics once the wheels are finished !

There is a member on the forum who IMO does a VERY good job tinting headlights. It would go great with your car.

I'd say put black tint film on the headlights and yellow film on the fogs. Just an idea
