You'd regret choosing black. Pathetic to maintain.

But they do look good when they're detailed. Usually for about 5 minutes.

true, ive heard that quite a bit. Maybe because the one i saw was in an indoor parking lot. the paint looked so beautiful. i guess thats the best part of PW.. we have no swirl marks unless you really try to look for them haha

Yep, black is ridiculously sick clean. A headache to keep clean but i get him detailed once a week, and he usually stays clean for a week. So not bad at all, lowered and shiny is just drool city! No regrets!

I regret my black ridiculously. I am seriously half in tears everytime a white Z passes me. It just looks so freakin beautiful, every curve is visible, instead of a black blob. Particularly how well black wheels and black roof and black wing can look on a white car... God.

I would trade my black for a white anyday.


EDIT: to add to the misery, there is a white Z in my neighborhood modded EXACTLY the way i would have gone about modding a white car.
