I feel much less original now :( lol. Looks good but it kinda just looks black in the pictures, something you've just got to see in person I guess. Hows the metallic in the carbon flash look next to the green? If you were to do it again would you go with carbon flash again or would you go with just a gloss black? Oh and are your gfx painted in the carbon too or just black? Your car looks really good though.

Thanks guys... GFX are carbon flash as well, the metallic only shows through really well in bright light. The sunshine is hit or miss here today and the car isn't very clean, but I will try for better pics when the sun is out and the car is washed...

lol..Sorry for the dumb question. I should have just read your sig.. If you dont mind me asking though how do you go about getting the carbon flash paint? Do you have to go through chevy/gm or will a paint shop or something have it?

The shop I went to was Chemical Skin in Loveland, CO. They were able to find it in their color chip book. It is a GM color, so that was how we narrowed it down from the other black metallics in the book.
