Default New Metallic Black Paint
Okay here are some teaser pictures of my new Metallic Black paint with decals...I'll have better pictures up soon. Overall I love the paint because it's not new I'm sure but I have never seen it on a F-Body plus the flame decals look great on it.

Looks good, I was thinking of doing that when i repainted my car black but it would be hard to respray if anything got damaged. Metallics are tough to match up. Beautiful car man!

Thanks guys, I think this car has come a long long way, this used to be my daily driver and has 200k on it, while I was in Iraq I updated Fog Lights (HID), Headlights (HID), New Paint, Koni Shocks, New Seats (2002 TA), New PS rack, CTS-V Brakes. She has been an awesome ride for me and has always brought me joy, so to help ensure another 15 years on the road I did what I had to do to replace some older parts.

That's one of those colors you have to appreciate in person.

Might I suggest flipping your exhaust tips 180º
