    i was thinking about doing the flat black thing with spray paint right before i got in my wreck anyways, i might do that. Plus than if i want to respray the entire car later on it would save me money. This is goin to require a poll. I just dont know how flat black would look on that car.

      Ok. I just talked to the parentals and they actually think its a good idea to paint it flat black like that. i am goin through with the flat black. Just need to know what color flat black. Semi-Flat Black or Ultra Flat Black. Here is a link to the color chart.

        We painted a car ( The VTEC waggon with neon's if you guys rember it from Fargostreet meets ) Flat black in one night, it took.

        10 cans of primer
        15 cans of black paint
        4 cans of clear coat <-Don't use

        That came to $65 bucks

        Oh yeah and if I were going to do it again, I would get some good "tips" for the spay cans. And I would also buy the plastic can holders so your hand doesn't get so tired.

            Looks good,

            From a distance, but realy Holden anything is better then multi color. Go flat black for sure.

                i would go with how they are now because if you dont spend the 200 now you could spend it on go fast parts, plus if it looks like shit people will think there is nothing under the hood.

                    Or i could spend the 100 on flat black paint and save the 3000 for a complete paint job and spend that on go fast parts.

                            too much money and i realized that you couldnt drive it daily. plus i go to a high school where every one hates imports and love trucks and like to vadalize cars and not be carefull around them. I am goin to paoint it flat black for now and once im done with school i will have enough for a good paint job.

                                        a show car is why cheaper then a race car in the long run anyway. a show car u dont go to the track go down the strip once brake somthing and then ur almost back to step one look at all the dsm's in fargo how many runs do they get in a summer?
                                        theres no way if u paint it urslef is it going to look half as cool as that hatch in the pic.there is a such thing as a pro flat black paint job
                                        one last thing i talk to u alot about cars and u say that ur goign to do all this stuff ur slef there arnt that many pimp cars that come out of a 17 year olds garage. im not ragging on u or insulting u at all. im just stating the facts

                                          maybe you should get the facts straight before you start talking. That guy with the hatch used Krylon spray paint to paint his hatch. Also did you notice that IM NOT BUILDING A SHOW CAR. READ THE ENTIRE THREAD BEFORE YOU START TO RAG ON SOMEONE. Plus you have to realize i do know what im doing when it comes to cars. its not hard to bolt up a header, bolt up an exhaust, or do all the other shit the only thing i wouldnt do my self is a good professional paint job. Or anything that i dont have the tools for or any machining.
