How dis look?

Just paint the damn thing already......

Now, with that off my chest, is the black a gloss or flat. Looks flat to me in that picture. I would like it better in gloss and maybe a flat black scoop. I have always liked the two tone paints long before Foose was doing them.

You gonna add the scoop? Change the interior to white? Is it flat or gloss black?

30% gloss black. Using cobrajet hood scoop(non shaker) Black interior.

Would the upkeep on the 30% black be normal waxing/polishing or would it be more like the flats and hang on to any wax that got near it?

I think you'll regret it in a few years when the Foose two-tone isn't trendy anymore. Of course, you run a body shop so I guess that really doesn't matter. The factory Mach 1 paint scheme is classic, timeless, and gets my vote...especially in black jade.

Upkeep will be minimal as it will be basecoat with a semigloss clearcoat.

+1
Don't like the two-tone on the body lines. Looks much better with the standard Mach I paint scheme.

Thats very nice Tarafied! However, whatever the owner wants his/her colors to be is ultimately his/her decision whether we like it or not. With Sluggo doing it, I'm sure it will be AWESOME! :pep
