Looks good, I did that color on my black t/a first, but changed it to flat black soon after.

That looks nice. I've been wondering for a while what it'd look like on a black T/A.

Looks damn good. Add the same color blackbird hood stripes, and maybe even have the wheel centers painted to match too. Have a pro paint the wheels though, don't want it to start flaking off and looking bad.

I agree about the blackbird hood stripes, that color needs to be brought up front and not just thrown into the rear of the car.

like mentioned above, blackbird stripes in that color with black "ram air" decals, wheels will also make it pop nicely, and the overlays on the doors "Trans Am" and the front bird plate in that color will be the only other things i would do to it...visually that is looking tight keep it up

Do you have any pictures of the flat black? I'd like to see. My car is BMW Carbon Black, and i can't for the life of me figure out what color to use.
