u would be looking at maybe 79.99 - 99.89 so it will be cheaper both ways buying paint and paintn

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.

Here is a pic off of HT of a civic with Krylon Semi-flat black paint.

Looks good,

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

Then you could hang out with this chick...

You would both be a little phat, and flat black

[karter_2_22]

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.

There is nothign under the hood... LOL(yes I know about "your turbo kit" your getting)

[harwood39]

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.

[karter_2_22]

do you even know who i am??? cus you know a turbo on the corsica would be sweet with that broken head bolt, i mean it might run like a 17 with a turbo, who told i was getting a turbo? and when

[harwood39]
