Not really my style, but it does look pretty clean.

I plan on getting shadowline badges in the next few days to complete the look.

I got it done in orlando at the shop Titan uses off of 50. (I go to school in orlando, but house still back in tampa)

It is 3 coats of clear+black and one of only clear to seal it off, and it cost me less than $80.

Can't wait for shots with the lights on, I bet they look so aggressive with the three light bars. Looks great!

Hey guys, the weather cleared, but still havn't had a chance to clean her...
You can see in these pis how dark it really is. i wanted to save kinda the stock red look, but just get it to blend w. my eventual blacked out look (shadowline badges, and powdercoated stockies)

I will get some nights shots as soon as I can.

Very nice... I like this A LOT!

Normally I'm not a fan of tinting tails, but this is very tasteful.

thanks man. i agree with you i only like tinted tails in really rare cases. I spent a long time with the painter explaining exactly the shade i wanted, and he got it PERFECT.

It was spray (black paint + clearcoat mixed)

And I have seen no bubbling at all.
