My last 4 of 5 were black (my Tacoma would've been , but I got a great deal on the Hunter green one that was in stock so I compromised), not counting my CJ, which if I hadn't have sold it, was on it's way to being painted black.

Black would drive me insane trying to keep clean.
Truth is my other car is silver, that's why I never considered it. Can't have 2 boringly dull, middle of the road, everyone in America has one, colored vehicles.

well I requested that photoshop of Cackeys jeep ... and it seemed he did not like it....I think with all the support about this he is having second thoughts? come on Clackey, you know you like it... I would do it with a texture finish... not paint... also you need some type of black decal some where on your jeep and it would look great.... I think I will order a spare grill and rhino it and swap it out from time to time from the stock grill...

If your gonna bash you can't make typo's. it leaves the door wide open.

At this point my Jeep is like 49% flat black. So I'm 1% away from being classified as two-tone. The only thing left are the key holes. Anyone have a fix for that? I need to rid my Jeep of all things silver.

You sprayed it on the Jeep? You got cojones!

Looks good. I never use the keyholes. I might try and do it with touch-up paint. I sprayed my antenna this past weekend.

Thanks for the link.
