I have seen neons or other cars like that and I like the way it looked. My old 97 was olive green with a flat black hood and trunk.

The fenders might be a bit much for me, but I know you didn't put it together like that.

Who said anything about that? We are just talking about flat black. I don't think that is mistaken for carbon fiber.

actually i did put it together like that....the fenders on the car were beat in pretty good so i replaced them and the hood that was on the car was all rusted....and hell, while i was at it, the trunk matched the hood i put on the car..so why not?
though now after this post, i think i might spraypaint everything on the car black besides the hood and trunk...
what more could you want for a $250 work car?

Some people may, but I don't think that is the overall thinking. But who knows.
