Rule of thumbs for black cars?

I think the whole "murdered out" crap is the most ridiculous look out there now. It'll look dumb on the 370Z in my opinion. As far as wheel colors, there

As far as wheel colors, there are tons of choices that can look good. Gold/bronze will look good, along with gunmetal. Chrome too, depending on the wheel. I'm a fan of the wheels that mix black on the inside of the spokes with a polished metal look on the outside.

All I know, is Volks to me are about as played out as Torq Thrust II's on F-bodies, or Bullitt's on Mustangs.

Its true! How many people have you heard say they cant wait to see some nice TE37's on their 370? I didn't know ANY Volk wheels, and within days of being on here I had that one memorized. That one is so overplayed its freaking ridiculous.

AMEN!!!! I F**king HATE that look... To me it simply says "I have no imagination." Does Steven Segal look cool dressed in all black??? No. And he wears that crap in every movie. No personality whatsoever. And when fat people wear black because it supposedly looks "slimming", don't they look ridiculous??? Yeah they do. There's only 2 things that look good in all black:

The SR-71 Black bird and the F117-A. That's it!

Have some personality and add a freaking trim color!!! For God's Sake!!! Give us some contrast!!!

You may want to add a 3rd to the list...


I think the 370z will look great in many color/style mod combos murdered out included. I personally don't plan on doing it when I get mine (love the white). If it's tastefully done IE: GOOD parts, right drop, off set, tires, etc... the lines of the car will really stand out.

The 370z is awesome.
