Default Black SC??

I'm going to be repainting my SC this winter and I'm hoping to retain the black color I have now. Does anyone have any recommendations of black paint colors that will look nice?

There can only be one king, and it is Triple Metallic Black.

OLT:
Those pics are great! They look like sex, I think I'm drooling!!!

Baoser:
Thanks for the advise, I really like the Carbon Black. I think I may have found a keeper! At least unless I find something I like better in the meantime.

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. If anyone has pics of the colors on an SC like OLT that'd be great too. Thanks everyone!!

The black that comes on the Subaru STI is really nice. It's got some bronze/gold flake in it. Very nice black for sure.

202, do it. Then get some neon green flames and a 'Type R' sticker on the rear...it'll work out.
