If you ever saw a real black Blackbird, you will see how it's done correctly.

Question, do you paint in side the indented outline or just up to it?

There is a vid there, there quality is bad but you get the idea. It actually looks lighter than the gunmetal pics i've seen here on Tech so it may not be the same color. I still vote gunmetal metallic.

The official Blackbird page is there also to check out the specs.

if you have a black car id vote for gunmetal. black only looks good on some colors imo...red, yellow, silver. if ya put it on a black car it'll just look like someone fucked up and forgot to paint the entire bumper.

On the topic of Blackbirds, how do you remove the red bird and "Trans Am" between the taillights?

The more I look at it the more I like that clean look.
