I have a 2005 Mineral Gray GT and I was considering putting a super stripe on the hood, I saw some flat black ones and thought they looked good, but I have not seen them on MG and I also found one guy who said flat black is hard to clean. Any input...

PICTURES PLEASE!!!
(mineral gray with any color stripes...)

 

there is a member on here that sells them, get them painted on if you want them that bad.

 

I was this close __ see that, That close to getting flat black stripes on a black car. Until Knight Rider came out i did not want to jock any one so I went with realistic flames.

 

Don't know that I have seen the SS done in flat black on MG, but I have seen it on Redfire, and it looks good.....

 

If you are going to paint, get gloss with clear coat. Steeda FTW!

 

I have flat black super stripes and side stripes. As long as you don't let water dry on them, they're really not hard to clean. Every once in a while, I use Mother's Back to Black on them. I tried waxing them and also tried using Armor All on them, but I didn't like the way either of those looked.

 

what about flat black spoilers (chin and rear), are they painted flat black or are they just left primered and where do you get them

 

My rear spoiler is not flat black. It's a stock spoiler that a forum member sold to me after he replaced it with an aftermarket spoiler.

I really haven't investigated, but I am pretty sure you could buy spoilers painted any way you want.

 

What about your window louvers, are those painted?

 

I have Matte/Flat Black stripes painted on my car. What works best when I have water spots is dawn dish soap. I only use this to lift the water spots off of the surface.I then follow up withMother deep gloss car wash. When I'm all done,I follow up with a little wax. The stripes come out looking good. No spotsm, nice clean smooth surface.
