Paint poll!

silver with black stripes

[phenometron]

Gloss black with flat black striping (sides or top). Wicked.

[manicmechanic]

Where the hell's RED???

[SinbadSailor23]

Here's another option if your still looking.

[amargari]

Dark silver with black stripes would look nice with the rims. I would then black out all the trim too.

[Taman]

Since red is not an option, I thought the all black looked awesome. I am a stripe fan but, that all black did look sinister.

ALL BLack

I'm close to getting a paint shop squared away sopaint is right around the corner, 2 questions for you guys

1) wheres the cheapest place to get a cowl hood?
2) I'm sure most of you have seen the ride tech camaro, with the bushed metal stripes, how would that look on black? I think it would complement the wheels quite well since they have brushed lips...

[DaviRotten]

Go all black with satin black stripes for a sinister look.. I had to clean myself up after the black car pic . So clean.

Black with silver stripes 0r tha other way around

I've been watching this poll for sometime since I own the all black car. It's not cheap or easy to make a black car look that good. I'm not trying to yank my own chain here, just thought it was an important aspect of the poll.

I love our car man, it looks awesome. I'm talking to the painters now and he feels confident about getting it right. I know what you mean though, I've seen some black cars where the black just highlights all the imperfections of the paint, I'm hoping I won't have that issue, but we'll see. How bad is the up-keep with black?

[Vegas69]

I've owned so many black cars and toys you just can't expect perfection ever. Well maybe the day you paint it or pick it up. After that it's all down hill. LOL You just need to realize that black shows everything. You can polish it up and drive it to the gas station and it's already got dust all over it. Nothing better to me, you just have to get over wanting it perfect and quick. I got my first chip with 250 miles so it was easy for me.

I painted this car for a friend and his color combo looks good with the black wheel and polished lip. It was also in Chevy High performance reader rides.

black metallic

[markos920]

Cant go wrong with black!!!

[monteboy84]

Black with Silver Rally Stripes, but give the stripes a brushed aluminum look using Scotch-Brite prior to clearcoat. Looks sharp, makes for a unique twist on a classic color combo.

[406 Q-ship]

Nothing is more intimidating the an all black mean moth'a. Straight single stage 99A Pitch Black!

[Droolguy]

All these people recommending straight black.

Have any of you owned a black car before? That s**t is downright frustrating... sure it looks good for about an hour after you wash it.

I will never own a black car ever again, at least not a driver.

Yes I have. Many black or metallic black cars! My current daily driver is black and my next car or truck will be black. And I am considering painting my 55' chevy black too. Yes its a PITA to keep clean, but so what?

I voted for black, but I am partial to black cars, especially black 68's...(see PT Garage)
