C/F is sexy on black.

It's the Cobalt's older(and quicker) brother, but here is my cav with a C/F hood(partially painted) and trunk.





C/F blends in with the right light/distance, but can still pop which is what i love about the combo.

I went for a dark color to try and get close to a murdered out look without it being black on black:

When I first started looking for a SS/TC I told myself I'd only buy victory red or rally yellow. I absolutley didn't want black. After 6 months of looking, a black one showed up and I said screw it because I wasn't waiting any longer. It's a bitch to keep clean, but I love black now. To answer your question go with red details. Paint your calipers red, get red SS inlays, if you have black wheels add a red pinstripe. It'll really spice up your black car, trust me.

Black or GTFO lol

But that's whats great about plasti dip. If you don't like the way it looks, just peel it off.

Yeah, I had a choice of silver with G85 and nothing else, black with RPD and sunroof but no G85 and a victory red with RPD and G85. There was a sport red tint coat in Dallas with RPD, G85 and sunroof but the one I ended up getting was the black one.
