Yeah, I had almost flat black (egg shell?) on my old sedan and, even dumber, I have it on my kitchen walls. B17s should have used seagulls instead of Norden bombsites for serious accuracy as the bastards only shit in the center of the hood.

There's cheap paint protector stuff in a spray bottle at auto parts places I used to use. I can't remember the name, but several brands make the same kind of thing and rubbing that on seemed to make it a little easier to keep clean after washing.

I also like the idea of a colored flat as black is pretty tired (and usually looks like shit as it fades gray).

those things in my headlights are bulbs, the camera seems to show them as a bright light but they are more of an eyelid, the pic below kinda shows what im talking about... they are way cooler in person

I just got weirded out. I'm planning some work for my car in the next week including a flat blue paint job. I also pitched the idea of moving the Legacy emblem from the rear onto the grill to a friend of mine just a few days ago! I love the way it looks on your car, and I'm pretty certain you just gave me the motivation to go through with it! Looks great :D
