Since the car is red, and the paint is kindof dull, I figure going with flat red would be fitting and kindof unique...i mean who paints their car flat red anyway?!



But still, flat black would look damn good too...



ahhhh, hence this poll.

Why would you want flat anything?!



Did you forget how much you loved the gloss of my engine bay?

I would go with black but I dont want to do the engine bay and all that. the bay and door jams are faded so they are flat already.
