It was a jet black from advance autoparts. I was at a friends house and he was painting his hood for his supra. Jokingly I said we should paint my car black. He said if I taped it off he would spay it. So now its black.

Looks Great. Chalk board paint from wal-mart looks awesome as well, plus you can have new graphics everyday.

That is great stuff... I just used the semi-flat to repaint the trim on my NX.
