I've got a flat black 240! I painted mine black out of boredom and the fact that it was two different colors from when my brother owned it. It gets wicked hot when you leave it in the sun, so good luck!

It's people like you that screw up a perfectly good paint job for the next owner to get frustrated over. Get it painted.

I'd rather spend $400 for a bad maaco paint job then $100 for a good rattle can paint job.
