Idk why i forgot to mention this, but it slipped my mind lol. So if you want to go flat black, do the vinyl, it will probably cost less than a paint job, and less to remove too if you dont like it. Also it will look much better.

That's actually good to know. Because the premium paint jobs on those high end cars cost about 5 digits. At least around here it does.

I'd do a straight up trade for that Ferrari. My "awesome, bright, shiney, limited edition, rare Monte Carlo", for his "dull, flat black, stock Ferrari".

I don't think he'd go for it either. But it's worth a shot.

100% agree! Thanks DEPO!

And I'm still wondering about the idea of flat/matte black racing stripes on my car. Doubt I'll ever do it though.

Funny, I have toyed with this idea also. I was concerned about black stripes sitting on a black car and the heat from the sun screwing them up. I have seen lots of pics of this, I just wasn't sure how long they would last.
