I'm deciding between painting my colt a matte flat black or primer color. Anyone done this, have pics? Leaning More towards black because my rims will also be flat matte black. I love black on black look, just curious how the colt would look.

If you want to do flat black this is the way to go! It can be a pain in the ass, I would recommend spraying everything at the same time otherwise it could come out different shades. Also you don't wet sand or buff it so any imperfections you can't get rid of unless you repaint the entire panel.
