Looks dope man, love sleepers.... Dig the flat paint, you could make the carbon flat as well, like the HKS track attack altezza a few years back... Looked like the meanest thing on wheels.
I have a '93 GSX with a decent paint job, but I could easily see doing this. In fact I have an '87 Grand National as well and I have been going through the thought in my mind of taking this route to do something totally different.
Nice job.
Can you exlpain more about the blacked out lights. What does that mean?
IF you look at the tail lights, they are darker than stock. I could have painted them darker, but I felt this shade would add to the almost stock look. I was really going for the most outrageous sleeper look I could come up with. As out there as I could get while making the car not stand out at all.

Got it, nice touch. what did you use to paint them.
While i've got your attention, you wouldn't know where I could get a 23 spline transfer case for a reasonable amount?
Hey Dana am I gonna get to take a spin in her tommorow or not? You better have it registered by now! And if you want we can do some drunken short throw shifter intalling....lol
very nice i like the sleeper detail right down to the ultra light but wide enough rims. i use to own fd rims. and then converted to a 4 lug car for a min and now that i am back on 5 lug dam i wish i kept them. IMO black is the best color for cars, but it show everything, with black matt you get the best of both worlds, and its very unique. i am thinking of doing the top half in black matt. it needs painting and i am broke. beauty of a car
Dana, did you fill the grill or is that a custom piece?
Hope he doesnt mind me answering for him but Im an insomniac and bored outta my mind. He used a stock laser center section that didnt have the vents kinda like this one but it is kinda custon since he smoothed it out.
Hopfully he will be updating this thread with some new photos pretty dam soon cause im on his case 24/7 to work on his car cause I absolutly love theway it looks! I know he is a buisy guy and has alot going on but the Darkness needs some lovin too!
It's KnightRider Second Generation!! You should get a cd with the Knightrider clips of Kit talking and play them in your car. I think you achieved your goal of a noticable sleeper, black never goes out of style.
Wow. I need to check this thread more. (subscribing). Like JP said, it's just a laser grill. But damn, doesn't it look nice. I'm actually planning on making a removable little custom grill with the Knight Rider LED and a CD with some KR sounds and clips to play in the car. Because that's how I roll. . . . fucking crazy.
