My Black Sunshine

Just pics i got of my car throughout the summer











hoo says Flat Black Sun Cant Shine


this is a pic that my buddy did there is no photochop done to it. The car was illuminated with a Keychain flashlight as the same as the text, the red light is done with 3 LED lights that were designed to make halloween pumpkins glow






and my buddies car, not a rx but it went with me to all the shows this year and yes its smaller than the RX

uhmm that doesnt make sense bro

your car is flat black right now, you painted it with automotive type base coat wich is flat black

you are going to do the bodywork on it again to repaint it flat black with clear on it.....uhm then you will have a glossy black car

either way it looks good as long as it wasn't that spray can stuff you are ok if it is the spray can crap then you will have a problem because it will flake off with time or crisp up

teh body work was never done to it yet and also i said it wrong its actually black duratec Primer, it was originally rattle canned and would rub right off i couldnt rock that so i had it sprayed with it to clean it up for the moment til i save up and get the body work done such as previous mentioned, it will be the base and an actual Flat Black Paint which is made and a ClearCoat with a chemical in it that it wont shine nor fade, see right now being its just the primer i take chemical such as soap or something and rub on it, it will shine, but when you get the toned down clearcoat on you can rub on it and it wont shine

When you do paint, go with satin black and flat clear coat to retain the flat look.

Looks good.
