Default Your Thoughts

I am between thoughts about painting my car this semi black, or leaving it blue. The vehicle does need paint as it has faded quite bad on the hood, roof, and trunk. What are your thoughts on this semi-flat black stang?

i think it was cool the first time but personally it looks "rat rod" unfinished to me.

i really like that midnight blue like jeff's car (gothand)..its like a dark blue with some grey in it.

but..its your car[8D]

Personally it looks unfinished, like a black primered car. Not to my liking. The question is though; Do you like it?

this is a very bright semi black. near grey?!
semi black looks evil, but as all others say: unfinished
looks cool, but it will extremely lower the valkue of the car whenm you'll ever try to sell it.
How about proper black with semi black go-faster-stripes

Damn, cant post here either...my reign of supremeness is coming to and end haha. I think it looks nice. It just needs some skinnies and fats and a healthy sounding engine to give itan oldschool drag carfeel.

+1 on the rat rod unfinished look. Like it is sitting in primer waiting for the final coat. Go withthe blue bc/cc.But I have to say, to make everyone happy, it's your car, do as you wish.
