Well guys after that egging incident I'm getting my car redone . So I thought I might as well do what I wanted to do anyways since it's getting painted.

Well guys after that egging incident I'm getting my car redone . So I thought I might as well do what I wanted to do anyways since it's getting painted. Quick questions.

Should I color match my door handles blue?
Should I do my roof, fangs and rear valence done in satin or gloss black?
Should I get my hamburgers shaved?

I dont like color-matched handles tbh.

gloss black would look good IMO.

I'd shave the burgers if you can. Looks much cleaner.



Car looks clean.

Except I'd only do the roof in gloss.

I prefer satin but definitely gloss black on the roof. It flows way better with the front and rear windshield. Even worse I've seen a matte black roof on a local MB Z and it looked terrible. Mine is a gloss black vinyl. Take a look at my photos in the member Z gallery (Dallaz 370). And I would do the burgers in satin too. It looks good and the spot feels empty without them there, but then there's the silver fairlady emblem.... Shoot!
