You guys definitely would put decals back on? While I was trying to decide what color to make the "ram air," my sister had an idea. She is in favor of the all black look... No decals. Can't lie, I kind of like the idea. When there are decals over the lisence plate cover bird, the "formula" on the door, the "Pontiac" in the back, it is just too much.
What is the best way/time to photograph my car? In the garage?
I had an 02 ws6 in 04 and I get WAY more complete now that it is 12+ yrs old =p I have also had people offer to buy my fast one while I was rippin around sac in it, with the roofs absent.

I'd rock it without decals for a while and see how you like it after a month or so. If it bothers you that it doesn't have them then go ahead and get some but I think it looks cleaner without the decals.

This. If you want a true representation of the paint, you need to take a photo with a fluorescent lamp under low light. I've owned 3 black vehicles; one of which I painted. I had the paint buffed by my neighbor and regretted it immediately because it spider-webbed terribly when the sunlight was right; but at night, it appeared perfect.
The best photos of black paint are done where you can see a good reflection of something on the paint and away from direct sunlight.
I'm willing to bet the paint looks damn good; but your photos aren't representing the new paint well.

What time of day is best for taking pics of a black car then?
I am a little confused.
Outside at the right time of day is better than in a garage? (Haven't tried either)
