It looks great Dan!

From the pictures it looks almost dark grey. How many gallons did you use?

Also, did you take photos of the process?

P.S I am sure someone already mentioned it to you, but why not just use a clear matte gallon since you already had the black as your base coat/starting color of the car? Could've saved you a gallon(s)?

Thanks Nick,

The color does look more grey in the pics, but in person it's darker. I actually didn't do it myself, I had it done at a shop. Not sure about how many gallons, and I'm waiting on him to send me pics of the process.

I'm super happy with it.

I actully like it because it looks like they took their time and did a good job with the process

Worst case scenario you can always remove it later and in the meantime it's just protecting your paint!

that's cool man! I ordered some stuff from there website yesterday to do my diffuser and fangs after my bumper and new lip is painted. I got their spray nozzle, which looks like should help to lay the paint out nice and even. I decided to try there tail light tint too. I was going to do it anyway, but the smoke product seems to have a look that I like better and I won't have to remove the lights to do it! Not to mention it was only $8 to try! I got the Charcoal color. I'm going for a dark flat grey look to compliment my 40th's color.

Looks good. It'd be interesting to see one done in the new Anthracite metallic that they have.

That would be an amazing color to do on the car. I love antracite grey

To the OP, looks awesome man. Really does look like they did a great job with your car. Nice job!

I wasn't sure about getting the pipes done, but the guy doing it said I would love it. And I do !

He really did take he's time. He had the car for 3 days, and kept posting "teaser" pics online while he was doing it lol
