This. I would have went Roush/Saleen grille, CDC chin, then matte black strip around the headlights blocking the silver underneath, but leaving the projector showing.

There is a vinyl flat black Raptor out of Vancouver I think that looks really good. Hard to tell in a photo it was not paint. I think it was done for a movie production company.

There were pics up for about a day or two and then they were removed from the hosting account.

I saw them and they looked really, really good.

I have not. We moved to smaller house with a much smaller driveway and only a two car garage. It's just a PITA to take pics right now. Plus the wife is 9 months preggers. I'm just trying to stay under the radar and keep my head attached. Both of them.

Pregnant women are nucking futz!!!

You certainly can, and you can DIY too if you've got the time. Its super cheap compared to painting too....

i agree that the fog lights need to be done to finish the look as well as limo tints all the way around. *insert paris hilton saying "That's hott."*

If done right, the flat color look is awesome. Lambo did it for some of their show cars with a matte blue look which was really gorgeous. BMW just offered the M3 with a matte silver finish as a limited edition, and it was also really good looking.
