Well after a two year rest and most of the time in a body shop the Charger is back on the road.  Finally have no more rust or dents on my car. My buddies have nicknamed it Deathproof the next generation..lol.  repaired and resealed all trunk and floor boards as well. Alot of work on the roof and sail panels(cracked factory bondo) changed out my hood again and got some wider shoes on her.(from 15+7 cop wheels with 275/60 15 to 15+8 with 295/50 15 steel wheels) Just need some real paint next $$$

I was going to comment on how great it looked in flat black. Then, I noticed that it was originally a silver car. :drool5:

Very cool either way, but if it were mine, I'd be antsy to get back into it's original colour. I can totally relate to having to wait, though.

Great looking car!  :2thumbs:

Man, it looks real nice with all the healthy sheet metal and the chrome bolted on properly, offset by that brutish paint scheme. Sort of like dressing Mickey Rourke in a 5000$ Armani  :rofl:
Flat black just... WORKS! Especially on the mopars, for some reason.
Too bad the euro/japanese crew have caught on, over here they're painting everyfrom from beat-up old vans to new Ferraris and Porsches in flat black, flat white... Bah. Kind of ironic  :icon_smile_big:

Say, you wouldn't mind sending those cop rims this way, would ya? I'm sure the shipping will be real cheap  :nana:

No need to spend any dough on a paint job, the car looks flawless!  :2thumbs: Very mean... great job


This Charger right here is a one of none, that means none before it, none to come.

Nice. :2thumbs: I think flat black is tied for first with gloss black for may favorite shade.
