Are you serious? I had a car painted there once. Good thing I sold it right after. It was THE worst paint job Ive ever seen. The broke my windsheild and their fender replacement creaked and squeaked like no tomorrow. You get what you pay for.

+1 my Integra was that color. hard to get it matched right though if you have to have any part of the car repainted.

Nighthawk black is just plain black, no metallic. Correct?

why do u need to claybar/Zaino a new car?

and I vote flamenco black pearl, its my favorite black

The black on the new 300C's is pretty hot, too.

see, i got my truck painted there about 2 years ago, and it has a 3 year warranty, which ends in 2 months. so, i went in there, showed them the parts where it is peeling, cracking, bubbling, whatever, and they said they will repaint the truck. so i asked, since they have to repaint the whole thing, if i could just change the color to black. hopefully they let me pick a black that i want.. you know
