    Flat black paint job...

    Does anyone know of a good paint shop in the Venice Santa monica area? I need somewhere that will be able to handle a really good satin black paint job...

    Any help would be great.

    I want to paint my car the same color... but I held off because black shows everything and flat or satin black isn't really a e30 color.

                I thought the point of going flat black was that you could diy. If you're soing to pay someone to paint you car why not go with a regular color?

                    ethree: because flat black done right still has clearcoat on it, it just doesnt shine as much.

                          I could have sworn I saw a satin black e30 rolling around in redmond, wa. Looked sick at first glance. I think it was just a spray bomb, but a pretty clean one.

                            There was one at the picnic with an M30 swap.

                            That car was beefy.

                              I love the idea of a satin black E30. Does the new MCoupe come in it? They have some really intersting colors for that car, different styles of paint... sorta flat, but sorta metalic-ee.

                              You would have to be sure every panel, every line was perfect to make it worth it, if not just break out the spray cans.
