Post by **jdmfreak** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

Yea flat black does look sexy on some cars.

Example:Skunk 2's Civic SI Hatch & Super Streets 240 Coupe.

*** Sport Compact's s13 coupe (I know because I stole their graphics =)

I pick super glossy black cause i love black cars.....and im getting kinda tired of the flat black color. Since sport compact put it on their s13 coupe some people figure it looks good on their car.

Shift_Oversteer i think the graphics looks pretty good on your car. When i first saw your graphics i knew it looked familiar...but my brother reminded me where it was from.

Post by **xns** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

darker colors tend to look good on the 240s, why not get a gunmetal silver or something... or metallic paint mmmm tasty

I have and love my gloss black, but any dings you have or will get will show on it more than any other. It also gets that dusty look within 2 hours of washing it. If these bother you as much as it bothers some people, go with the silver, it hides the little things better.

Exactly, if I wanted that color I'd paint my car with only primer. But I guess if the car's lines are naturally beautiful, it doesn't matter. Flat black is like a girl without makeup--how good it(she) looks depends on the car(girl).

eeeeeewwwwwww chrome lips are so ghey! especially on a flat black car with black rims. Whoever that was need to get a style check. shame on you boy. Go with one of the glossy black or silver. Just dont get chrome lips...

are you MAD????!!! black rims with chrome lips are BEAUTIFUL....the only bad part about it is that SOOOO many tuners have them on their car so its not often it looks much different than the guy down the street.

Post by **jdmfreak** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

Yea man they are sexy as hell on some colors.

Post by **downshift** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

yep.....like on black, red, white and blue cars.....but thats may just be me.

Post by **240 Trainee** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

I voted the Flat black, but it was a tie for me between the gloss black and the flat. Depends what you are planning on doing with the car.

Post by **Ceptos** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

style check? heh, what kind of stickers do u suggest then?

Post by **goomba240** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

Hmm I would go with an Off White? Kinda like Honda's Championship white. Especially if its a coupe *drooolllll*

Post by **offtheline** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

I think flat black is officially a trend now. Everyone thinks its cool now so lots of people are doing it and as soon as you finally do it, you will just be a bandwagoneer. Paint it bayside blue. Ooh thats sex.

Post by **MainEvent212** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

eh, i'm a bandwagoneer...oh well, i was poor and i wanted it to be one color..it looks sweet, i'm gonan re-do it soon cuz i'm still too poor for real bodywork/paint

Post by **rico05** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

Flat black. can't beat it.

Post by **Rex** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

Coupe (2 Tone, is a must) or Hatch (Silver works, but Black is SEXY)

Flat black may be a trend, But I liked it before SCC, and it will cost me less than $25, thats my reason. But, if your gettign the car done professionally, a glass black or dark gunmetal, black rims with a polished lip. I personally like the 3 piece watanabes.

Post by **IlIkEmYz** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

that looks bad a$$

Post by **Tsukai240** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm

thnx for all of the sugestions. i think i'm going to go with the glass black. i have a pet peave about having a diffrent color in the engine bay and door sills. thanx. the poll was cool,

Post by **Ceptos** » Tue May 04, 2004 4:36 pm
