flat black has been done on every car probally ever built. go for it. no way you can loose. but what would be trick is a flat color. flat red, blue, green, baise etc.

I agree with him!! For some reason I always agree with you STRATTON!!

do a flat midori green(like camo primer) it would be original as hell!

flat black has been done on Mike's (scorchn200sx) car, the one with the 2.5 swap

I think it looks good so go for it!

Yea i've seen his car in person. Its freaking awsome!! But don't bite be your own...

anyoen got a link to a pic of his? and a different color would be cool but i just like black i have and eclispe thast been in primer gray for a while but its being painted now i just thought black would be pretty awesome

Word, i loved it i thaugh it was cool, when i opened my doors u could see the aztec underneath. Go for it!

i just painted my se-r dark grey primer. it's almost black, but it looks good. right now i'm trying to decide if i will stick with more flat paint, or break down and pay maaco a few hundred bucks, since i already did all the sanding/priming. i'll try to get a pic, camera should be operational soon.

people say bad things about macco but me and my friend have had good expirences withthem...is say go for it!

God... why do you all want to paint your car flat black? It is so ugly. It looks like shit on hot rods (I think it should be a sin too) and it looks like shit on new cars. Everytime I see a car on the road with a 'flat' color the thing that goes through my head is "look at that poor guy." It's ugly... and I think it's almost as ricey as those idiots that drive around with a primered car.

Flat black on interior... that's good cause glossy doesn't usually match. But on exterior... yuck. Sorry, but thats just my opinion.

well thats your opinion and i don't have a problem with it i just can't afford to get a real paint joba dn flat black is the easest way to go then maybe down the road if i keep the car long enough i'll paint it and its already prepped then

flat colors suck in my opinion and dont tell me im wrong because thats my opinion and i have experience my cars been a flat dark gray primer since july...it gets old at first i was like thats pimp now im like...this sucks i wanna wax my car but theres no need to it always looks like dirty and just blah if you want paint it flat black primer when you get sick of it sand it paint it

bah, whatever, my car looks good considering it's my first venture with paint and i'm not finished yet, anyway. and when if i do decide to do my own paint, it will be semiflat black, not reg flat, and i might even throw a clear coat on. this guy i talked to around town said that if you clear coat matte colors it makes them a bit lighter in shade, as opposed to colors with metallics. so it would come out being a grayish shiny color. idk. i've thought about o.d. green too. would look sick with the gunmetal rims.
