newman is totally right, fuck the flat black haterz, personally i dont think it looks good on all cars, a Z im nto sure of, well see wen its done but exactly liek he said, theres way more black,white, red, blue, silver ect.(gloss) cars out there than flat black. tho i think a flat navy blue or flat dark gray would look cool also, if my s13 was a fastback id prolly flat black it, but i just dont like flat black coupes, so im just gonna save up and get it resprayed black ---
