Ya I would of gotten black but I found this one first. Lol. I guess you could always do flat black maybe? It would contrast a little...might be one of those subtle changes that end up makin the car.

Ya I don't my black, was the only t/a I could find that was nice, also came with a ws9 outlaw hood, I'm doing flat black black bird stripes so a flat black ceta mod may look good also

If your using photobucket, you have to go into the settings there and make them larger so that when you post a pic on a forum, they are bigger there too. NBM w/ gloss ceta looks freakin nice man!
