Jumping way.. way ahead of myself. I looked online, and in the Gallery section. Didn't find much.

Was wondering if anyone has good photos of a roadster done in flat grey, or flat black colors. I am tempted to go that rout.

Tnx

Very nice.

I was curious if anyone has done a flat grey similar to late model Benz's or BMW's.

Yeah, what he said about mine.

It was never intended to be permanent when I did it 12 years ago. I'm tired of it (and have been for a long time) and think the whole flat/matte finish deal is outdated... I've just been too busy doing cars for others to change it! Honestly, flat/matte finishes are kind of a pain to live with.

Cheers,
Jeff

Blue With Black Stripes Would Look Better With Your Rims & Roll Bars!

If I get a vote, which I don't!

Thats a cool paint job. I guess after over a decade anything would start to look tired ))

Whats the biggest pain of living with a flat finish anyways?

All my race bikes were flat black, hence i was thinking about doing a car that way.
