Splitters and Diffusers... FLAT or SATIN black?

[dave6666]

OK all you SRT guys and gals. I'm starting to design some goodies for my Gen 2 and am wondering what all the aero effects from the factory are painted with. Like maybe even the new ACR.

Flat or satin black?

There's a cold Lone Star in it for you.

Come on Dave, paint them to match the white hood vents.

 

[fastmd]

ACR=Carbon fiber, clear only.

I'm gonna do the new door louvers that way. But I'd like the aero parts to be ****-like you know!

C'mon, at least someone knows what the blades on their SRT's rear diffuser are.

Back on topic here.

Flat or Satin black?

I used a paint/color called "Rally Black". It is a shiny Satin... if that makes any sense. You can see it in a thread on the gen 2 forum.

I say egg shell

 

[dave6666]

flat black

Wow. An intelligent response.

My craftsmanship is no where near the quality of yours Dave. I ordered mine from Michael and went with aluminum polished just for that added stock appearance? I'm hoping it looks right. Even if not I can go to a flat black.

I'm anxious to see the progress on your as the project moves along.

Your car is red, go with flat black.



And here's to no more dust

Satin black on my front splitter (GTS ACR), wing painted body color (red) with matching silver stripes. Looks really good with the black fog lamp covers and black wheels.

Carbon fiber would be preferred but good CF is a bit pricey.

flat......

 

[dave6666]

This is starting to look like a 50-50 mix now on the opinion front.

Hmm.

Maybe flat white to keep my weird theme going?

Why not body color? Going to add canards and a gt2 front splitter to my car in Saphire blue. Saw a pic of a red with the same pieces in body color and they don't disturb the lines of the body. More subtle. Looks like they were there from the start and not some ricer add on. GTS Bruce

I would love to see pics of that when you're done. But I'm thinking more of the traditional race car effect where the lower aero parts are black, regardless of body color. I don't think that's ricer, it's traditional race car.

Did you know that race car spelled backward is race car?

Um... What?

By starting this thread, you did not think it would turn into an intelligence test did you?

 

[B767DRIVER]

I'll go with flat....

Um, actually, no.

I expected it to provide a platform to rib me over other things that I've done to my car, with the occasional "on track" reply.

My expectations are being exceeded. I'm getting ribbed AND I'm getting many replies to the question I posed.

Satin Black. Flat belongs on a rat rod.

Anyone else remember the ballad from Paladin? Have gun will travel reads the card of a man, a knight without armour in a savage land.
