Just toying around with an idea. How would a flat black exterior with glossy black accents and black chrome wheels and tips sound to you guys? (I ain't gonna give away the exact car I have in mind... ) If anyone has pics, post 'em up!

 

be careful it might look extremely ricey

 

I think a primed out car with glossy accents and chrome anything would definately need to have fake bullets on the rear bumper and have the cupholder transformed into a taco holder.

 

I can imagine that. I can also see it looking mean as hell... maybe not a primer black, but some other non-glossy black... I need pics, lol

 

Well, flat black or primered cars are anything but ricey. Ever heard of Rat Rods??? I would however stay away from the gloss accents and chrome and do it right. Keep everything dull and flat.

 

nice... I should try that Really though, what if it weren't primer, just a not-so-glossy black, with a contrasting gloss black 30th anerversery stripe down the center?

 

Here is A DH car in kind of a Satin/Primer look:







Looks pretty cool but unfinished to me.

 

I'm not a fan of that finish on modern cars but I sure am a fan of those Dick Harrel camaros!

 

it doesnt look to ricey to mee

 

You could paint that car puke green and it would still be cool!!

 

some cars can pull it off some cant.. some look good with satin accents.

That Dick harrel car doesnt lool all that bad with a satin finish on it. its that old school bad *** look. Basically says im a bitchn car and do need to be shiny to prove it.

Blacks the only color it works for tho.

Well no, satin paint obviously doesn't look ricey on a $100,000 DH car or a $250,000 Ferrari. But I imagine anybody's little pet project would not be a flat black Ferrari with gloss accents.

Maybe if you painted the car regularly and ran with a flat black stripe or hood scoop-but I wouldn't do the whole car.

 

Here's a couple of pics my friend took on the Power Tour (yes, it had an LS7... It was GM Performance Parts' car):

 

I don't think it looks to bad at all...can definately be pulled off

 

I started looking for my pics of this car from PT when i saw this thread. Personally I love the way it looks.

 

Now that's what I'm thinking! Tell me that wouldn't look dead sexy with glossy accents! Any more?

 

That looks like *** on both cars. The DH cars are awsome but not that one

 

The pics are of the same car...

 

No they arn't.. Ones a DH car and ones a SS that GM stuck a ls7 in for power tour...

I love it btw..

Which I took to mean "both cars" as both cars I posted... Not the DH car since he mentioned seperately... I'm the one who posted the LS7 pics so definetly didn't need an explanation on the pics I posted
