I opted for tuxedo black over black will I regret this? I think it would have more bite but now I'm having seconds thoughts. What do you think? It''s on my 2005 Mustang. I still have time to cancel the tuxedo black.

I felt the same way when I ordered my truck. Now I love it. The first time I saw it was on my friend Mike's 2010 SHO. It was a rainy day and the car was quite dirty. I couldn't tell too much.

When my 2015 truck is in the shade it looks BLACK as BLACK could be, when the sun hits it you won't believe the brilliant multiple color flecks. It is really hard to describe. Go for it Dan! The 2016 models went back to the solid (Raven) black.

Daniel, you will NOT be disappointed in the Tuxedo Black paint with the multicoloured metallic flakes.
It is absolutely stunning.
A guy at the place I work has a Ford truck with that exact paint.
In the sunlight, the paint absolutely pops.

Another guy has a new Ford truck that is painted dark green and it has almost the same appearance as the black paint in the sun or shade.
The dark green paint is also sharp.
Down side with any vehicle painted black or dark green is the labour that goes into making it look clean all the time.

Jack, thanks for the stunning illustration as it really shows off the paint qualities.

Cheers. Cobra

Gerry black is a pain in the booty anyway. I feel too it will give it pop and not look as bad when it gets chipped.

Tuxedo black looks like it will be pretty sharp.
I'm wondering how it would look all in tuxedo black, with gloss coat over most of it, but matte coat on the hood.

I really like it wrapped in Matt but I couldn't afford it. The price was 2500 hundred I'm getting a deal on this because someone in my department knows him. It is costing me 1300 hundred.

Ah, fair enough. The plan that came to mind wasn't one that would likely fly; letting the shop spray everything gloss but the hood and doing the hood by hand with a rattlecan of Duplicolor matte coat on top of the Tuxedo Black basecoat the shop sprayed. But spending big bucks to just rattlecan over parts seems like it defeats the purpose of paying for it to be done professionally unless you're absolutely fixated on a certain look (which I tend to be :lol: ).

That looks really great Daniel. I'm glad you went with the Tuxedo Black - it really adds some dimension and character over the enamel black.

The right choice, it's a winner. Your "new" ride is fantastic. What made me think you had black interior? I like the tan, great contrast. :thumbup:

Just like Jack's quote; fantastic combination.
I really like the tan coloured interior.
Daniel, definitely a winner and an automobile that can make you feel definitely proud.
Thanks for taking all the pictures of your "new" pride ride.
Awesome!

Cheers. Cobra
