^ OK the above pic.....

Sure it looks alright but uhm, how often do you park in a garage like that with that kinda lighting?

Everywhere else it's just plain gay.

x.x. I like how it looks. It's black without the pain of black I would think... guess I've never really seen it dirty, but I could only imagine it wouldn't be too hard to keep it looking like that.

I like it, but not on all cars of course.

Something to keep in mind, there are different matte/satin/flat blacks. That article shows the differences.

The flat stuff is WAY to hard to keep looking nice, no matter how careful you are some areas end up getting a higher gloss than other areas and then it looks horrible.

I would do it if I had agressive aero.

Lets talk about "mag blue" wheels, now those are getting played out
