I know everyone uses the sem trim black on these cars since it’s an exact match, and that’s what I purchased as well. However, a buddy of mine has a brand new can of sem hot rod black which he offered to spray on all my trim with his air gun. He told me that’d be better than the rattle can.

Has anyone used the sem hot rod black that can let me know how it looks? It says it’s a satin black just like the trim black. Is it a color match for these cars?

If the color is OK, 99% of the time having paint from a qt or gallon can being sprayed by a paint gun will be MUCH nicer.. Better pattern laid out and more paint will be sprayed on to your item.....

Believe the SEM P/N is 39143 for the trim paint.
