Normally I'd be against something like this, but with your car color, I think it looks good. Gives is a racy look to match the performance. I give it a thumbs up.

I can't say that I like it but I can't say that I dislike it either, just different I guess.

I like it, not sure you could do it with another color but with Silver it looks good.

Be very careful when you clean the flat areas,they will show scratches like you wouldn't believe.........

Lot's of C5s did this, sometimes I like it sometimes I don't. I'd like to see your entire car in that flat.

Sincere thanx for the kudos and opinions.
All flat black is tempting. The flat paint on my car is a sherwin Williams premium blend that takes clear well.
Keep it comin.

Looks like primer to me as in you haven't made up your mind about the color or can't afford to finish it off. JMO

I don't dislike it - it's interesting and I find myself kind of liking it. Very unique look.

I really like it with Silver and I was going to ask if you did the clear as it looks like it in the pictures I really like your wheels
