Hopefully the dark colour doesn't hide the lines of the car -

Keep up the good work - well done
Nice work. I too have been tempted by respraying in a very dark blue or black. Maybe someone can explain to me the concern about darker colors hiding the lines of the car. I've always thought that this problem is greatest with the lightest colors (like white). When I've had the opportunity to walk around a black gtv or spider in the light, all the natural creases and angles seem accentuated rather than made more ambiguous.
