EVER. IMHO black is black.. just make sure you get full coverage and use a nice high luster clear.. i think the key for black is to use a qualitly clear.

I couldn't' agree less. I had a 2001 Corvette that had a LR quarter replaced and painted by the dealer. That panel always had a brown tint where the rest of the car had a blue tint. I didn't notice unitl after I bought it and saw it in the right light. Always erked me. Once you notice.....
