Im not sure about the flat black. I got one in my silver TA. I left it with the brushed finish and looks great. I got mine from e-bay, new and dont remember the price..I think it was like $75.00?? Ive seen them used for as low as $40.00. Good luck!

Great job, the car looks great. What paint did you use, was it the color match stuff?
