Flat Black 850: dumb Or Not To dumb?

Recommended Posts

I got completly hammered today, bought six cans of duplicolor flat black spray paint, and went to town on my formerly green 850R. You wouldn't believe how hard this car is to spot at night now. :lol: I know it looks like shat, but qiute frankly, I was tired of the green.

On the tail, I also took off the reflectors and bondoed the holes. I think it looks alot more boxy. I also removed the spoiler to complete the look. I like it, it looks hella different. I also patched up the hole where the exhaust used to reside out the back, since I am running a side vent.

So flame on, I only have two coats on, but when I hit something, it is super easy to patch up. I am really fond of the tail, and am surprised nobody else to my knoledge has done this. I hated the fake reflectors. This is a 94 that I swapped my 97 tails to, then got sick of the reflector behind the plate. Enjoi.

Cut the coils to complete the look! You in Kingston?

Coils are being cut this week, Teethy's are on their way to get me some matching rims. I still am rocking winter rubber. This car is soo easy to touch up, its cool.

I did make my own ghetto ram air intake, you jeleous? I didn't mask off the moldings, because the previous owner thought it would be cool to primer them, then paint them green, like the rest of the car he painted (from black, idiot). Yes that is an R you see.
