Props for someone willing to go true "murdered out", not glossy and call it so. I like the look, but wonder what it would look like with glossy black wheels for a little contrast.

Flat black is not my cup of tea. It just does not look right as a car's paint scheme.

Looks like someone "pealed" off the gloss.

I'm not a fan of true "murdered out" cars.

Contrast is a necessity for good looks in my book.

It looks like a car that is not finished..

I love the look.. I'm actually doing the EXACT same thing to a C5. It'll just be a tad faster than the C6 Z. (By about 700 more rwhp)

I'm still trying to figure out he whole "Murdered Out" thing.

What the fk does that mean??? And no, i'm not old.. I just must not be down wit the the homies. (Do they still say that??)

Thats what I am saying the look is totally bad *** but the term "murdered out" is gay as hell. Plus to the guys who dont like it and claim to be old, this is a very old school look the old guys are the ones who started it. Flat black rules but I too dont think I have the ***** to do it myself.

I think it looks awesome. Murdered out is the new danger.

I'm laughing at 'no class' comments because it's not uncommon for exotics these days to rock the same theme.

I'm impressed by both the ***** it takes to do that to your car AND the amount of work necessary to get the look, but I still think it looks like it's been primered and waiting for paint.

To each their own.

Agreed, All in favor say Aye!

It's kinda like our society has gotten to the point where people just take a dump on their finish. No offense just IMO.

I think that's pretty sic. I started to be a fan of this look after seeing Rob Dyrdek's flat black Tahoe.

I do think the CCW SP550s might look better than the 505a's for this style tho.
