what about doing a matte (glossy flat) black solid anniversary stripes on my onyx black SS. Ive been toying with the idea but haven't been able to find a find a stencil to use to lay it out on the car.
my paint is jacked from sitting outside all its life. but now that i have a place to store it, i want to do the paint.

If its done right it will look awesome, if not it will look like the cheapest maaco paint job you've ever seen. If you have the time and money then do it, do it right and post some pics. Either way please don't put a ram air trans am hood on your camaro!!

go for it, but do it right. there's a fine line between "flat-black-murdered-out-badass" and "primered-can't-afford-good-paint-looking-for-euro-tail-lights-gay" 
there's a C6 for sale on here that's factory black, with black wheels that have red pinstripes on them, just like my old '05 Yamaha Raven R6. THAT is a SICK look when done right. i say go for it and never look back.

wow it seems like there's alot of pussies on here, Mr. MycamaroSS you like the way it looks right? You seen it done right like on MTV, and you seen it done wrong like the honda across the street. So DO IT RIGHT, a semi-gloss flat black camaro would look very very sick. Please do what you know looks good. BTW take a look at this lambo...
Edit: just saw it was corrected allready

yea lots of good feedback on this. I was also looking around and saw HidalgoZ's car and he has a black z with flat black berger, spoiler, and stripes. I was thinking it would look pretty cool if i did a manta stripe..flat black that extends to the hatchback and do the berger mod. Does this sound like it would be tight or just stupid... O and yes if i do do this i am going to be putting down A LOT of money to make it look badass

^there is, the dude i bought it from said he just got a good paint job on it and so i was like sweet. Than 5 months of having it the ****** front bumper starts peeling off and of course not only is it flaking, he used a god damn different color bumper and didnt even prime it, just had a company paint over the freakin bumper and it ****** pissing me off 
so that's why i want to do this
