Question (Flat Black)

redpony00 · December 14th, 2007, 02:21 AM

Should I flat black my 2002 mustang? I thought it would be cool with some black cobra r wheels, make it a stealthy pony. what do you think?
Thanks for the input-Josh

flat black absorbs moisture... and can led to pre mature rusting... it is you choice and i have yet to see it done ...

pilot37 · December 14th, 2007, 03:04 AM

i wouldnt go all flat black if i were u; its cool for hood scoops & shiit but not all over

if u want a scheme change i think black w/ red accents would b sik

I Live in Ky and FlatBlack mustangs are what all the hicks have and then they rust nothing against flat black i like it just not the whole car i say only on body accesories but if u love then do it

I think that would be awsome. Flat Black mustang. Just like Rob and Bigs pinto and wasnt that a tahoe that rob had. I have a 2003 R6 which was blue and I got it flat black but with chrome rims..

Just to say black on black is murdering it out.. LMAO... Thats what the paint guy called it

Drgnracin72 · December 14th, 2007, 01:18 PM

if flatblack is done riught, it will not rust anymore than a regular paintjob, its a color just like any other, and that doesnt compromise its ability to protect. now if you rattle can it, i would hope your not driving in the rain or around salt water as it could cause problems

thetrooper31 · December 14th, 2007, 01:19 PM

please dooo it ...i want to see !

wadepetersen · December 14th, 2007, 01:50 PM

do it and the other do is right it wont rust if you get it done right the other thing that would be cool is to get the spray on bed liner and do your car in that. my friend is doin his doge aries in it and i saw a new sti done but it adds alot of weight so it is not smart but it is cool looking

pilot37 · December 14th, 2007, 10:29 PM

i wouldnt recommend bed lining it; thats make it soooo unsafe in case of an accident imo. u might as well just kiss ur crumple zones goodbye. i have that in my f250 bed & its strong as shiit

Stang6899 · December 14th, 2007, 10:50 PM

I see flat black on 2 many CRX's and I personally just dont like the look of it. Your current paint looks fine to me....and pilot why are you getting such high gears? i say 4.10s highest

pilot37 · December 15th, 2007, 04:02 AM

next summer im movin to daytona beach--like across the street from the speedway, haha
i wont use it as a daily driver down there, so im willin to put up with a couple months of rough ridin so it'll b killer on the track. plus with how fast i'll go through 1st gear i'll get better & better at shiftin quicker & quicker, lol. i talked to one guy that had 4.30s in his old stang & he said they actually arent that bad

El_Cangri · December 15th, 2007, 11:08 AM

just be careful of not over revving.

4.10 r short i cant imagine 4.56's

Stang6899 · December 15th, 2007, 04:33 PM

What year did the guy with the 4.30s have? was his an auto? If its gonna be a track car then I think you'll be fine though. o and the eaton 8.8 is nice and with the 31 axles you'll be able to take a lot of power. what are your future plans? N/A? FI?

pilot37 · December 15th, 2007, 05:41 PM

his was a 99 manual

not sure about long term plans yet...
after the mods in my sig im gonna get suspension & body kit.
might try to make it one of the quickest n/a cars out there. maybe just s/c it. maybe drop in a bugatti W-16 w/ 4 turbos...lol jkjk
but i think im leanin towards just keepin it n/a but fast as hell...more unique then most of 'em out there

but whatever i do i gotta get some more money first, haha

Stang6899 · December 15th, 2007, 05:45 PM

Haha I recommend you go FI. If you're N/A and fast thats cool and everything but if you throw on a supercharger/turbo you'll be even faster :]

pilot37 · December 15th, 2007, 05:49 PM

yeah, i know haha
to tell the truth i'll prolly end up FIen it once i cant get any more speed out of n/a. but like everything else, theres always somethin more u can do to it ;-p
