Thanks for the kind comments and suggestions

Glen, you are right. The exhaust does look too bright so will paint that black too, as well as darkening the side markers.

Richard. Buying a second set of wheels was a convenience thing. I have a great local guy who does powder coating and I trust him to do a great job, but he is very slow. So got the wheels so that I could drive the car whilst he was doing the second set of rims. Should be able to get the same as I paid for them, so it's a wash in the long term.

Traditionally I have stayed away from black cars as I see them as a cleaning nightmare. Usually go with the safe option of gray (my C7 Vette was Shark Gray) or my all time favorite color is orange, but that only works on some cars (I used to race an Orange Lotus Exige in the U.K.)

But I am really into the black on the Camaro Vert. It has been very easy to get it all looking just right, although there are a few more details to sort out
