I'm planning a full bare metal paintjob on the SEC. Its currently being stripped down, but i'm debating whether i should colour it the same shade of black. My options are:
Blue black 199
Obsidian black 197
Black (non-metallic) 040
I don't really want to choose a non MB colour and i want to keep to that kind of shade. Any thoughts? I'm currently thinking obsidian black, similar to black but a hint of grey and its metallic, but not sure what it will look like.
The car will be stripped all the way down so inside of the doors/boots etc is not a problem. All the windows, front/rear screens are coming out so a top job will be done.
I've included a picture of a flat black car as well. Couldn't find an obsidian black SEC as there isn't one (yet!), but it will look similar to the black one.
