Flat Black 2g
Do any of you guys have a pic of a 2g that's flat black? I'm really interested in what it would look like, as my plan is to do a professional paint job with some gold Advans. Please post up if you have anything.

Re: Flat Black 2g
It would look like someone forgot to finish painting the car, just like every flat black car.

Re: Flat Black 2g
It would look like my Laser, that is not something to be proud of.
Why drive around in something that looks half-assed? I'm not sure how this "primer" craze got started, but I think its from the ricers who install bodykits and never paint the car.

Re: Flat Black 2g
the flat black is a hot rod thing
I would just base it in black and use a flat clear coat over it

4 years ago, every 240sx that came into Elite was flat black and every single one of those guys though they had the only flat black 240sx in town.

Re: Flat Black 2g
Yeah, I am a fan of flat black as well. But, only as a low cost solution, not as fashion statement.

I've only seen one flat black 240SX in the Twin Cities, so there must be only one.

Flat black=subtract 50% from the value of your car at resale.

To answer your question, no I have non.
To go along with everybody else I would have to know what your car looks like now. Flat black is kinda the honda way to go imo, but if your car is like piss green with fading color and graffiti all over the side, then maybe flat black would be a good temporary way to go.

Re: Flat Black 2g
Flat paint can look amazing in the right application. I really like flat paint Ducati uses on the Monsters.
Oh and that F430 looks awesome. I had a few pics of a Flat Grey 911 GT2 but i cant seem to find them again

I'd have to second that. A nice paint job just not glossy would be pretty bitchin. Not talking about a spray can flat block job we see all over.

Re: Flat Black 2g
Here is a M Coupe (The Clown Shoe) that a guy just did flat black. It looks good, but those cars are ugly as sin to start with.

Re: Flat Black 2g
I think a semi gloss black looks pretty cool. The flat/primer black that was rattled can doesn't look so cool.
