Do whatever you want, don't ask a forum for tips and styling queues. Everything gets judged, even stock. It's just some more than others.

I would do it any way you like. Until someone starts making your car payment for you, I wouldn't listen to what anyone has to say about it.

I wouldn't say played out, it has to be done right, many people just keep making more and more of their car black. That only works if your Batman, you need another color to break it up or it looks plain or boring.

Black on black has been done so much. OP, to be totally original, should paint his Z sparkly pink with safety orange accents. No one can call that "played out"

This is spot on. If people here listened to everyone who had something negative to say about a particular mod/style, everyone would drive vanilla stock cars.

Individualizing your car is always gonna be an "eye of the beholder" kind of deal....what looks wicked killah to one person might be complete rubbish to someone else.

I'd say the person making the payments gets to trick out his or her ride to his or her own tastes.
