There was a car featured in GMHTP a few years ago with a flat black ceta mod on an SOM car it looked incredible, if I had the extra money I would buy a som car and do the same.

There's a SOM Ws6 driving around where I live that has the CETA painted dark grey, and it matches the centers of his TTIIs. He also has a matching blackbird stripe. It has to be one of the sexiest T/As I've ever seen.....

A black matte finish or a silver or gunmetal would look good.

im with lbls1- gloss black, silver or gunmetal grey... and like kerryt1 said; if the ceta mod goes along with your car's scheme (i.e. blackbird stripe, wheels, etc) it'll look amazing!

Those car colors look awesome. I saw JPR's SOM car on the rack at NLP and I have to say I was quite impessed. Just make sure if you get yours painted that you pay the extra money and do it right. I can assure you if you get around other LSx car groups, since the SOM's are few-and-far-between, people are going to want to know if it is an original factory SOM car. When you open the doors and pull the hood up, some will be very critical if they see and hint of black, anywhere. Some will say things to discourage you because they are envious of your car. Some will simply be disappointed because they like you nitrous and motor setup ... only to find it's not an original SOM.

You know what I say? F**k 'em ... do it, but, have it done right !!! If anybody criticizes you for it ... just tell 'em it doesn't fly any lower ... wanna' race? You'll already be improving a beautiful car if it's done right. I do like the black already, but, SOM/CETA is the 'icing on the cake'! Good luck.
