anyone else here prefer jet black over black sand pearl?
why oh why scion, do you not offer just plain black..
now that Ive had black sand pearl for 2 months... I find myself preffering just plain black more than the pearl paint..
plain black looks much deeper and cleaner when waxed, while I find black sand pearl look like gun metal or flint mica mid day and even after a deep claening and wax, it never stays pure black.
IMO I just find plain jet black much sexier and cleaner looking than the pearl stuff, which makes the car look grey during the daytime.
anyone else think this way?

TOTALLY ABSOLUTELY AGREE WITH YOU!!!! When I went to buy my BSP and saw the color swatch, the salesman said take that and add a little peal coat and that is it. When I received it, I was more disappointed than anything. There is nothing Black about the Black sand Pearl, if anything a deeper shade of flint mica with pearl coat. The jada option D diecast is the exact black that they should have done. If my car ever gets gouged up and needs to be re-painted, hint hint, thinking maybe I can get it jet black. Just my $0.02 though!!!!

I completly agree, mine only looks awesome right after i wax it for about 2 days and then it looks like crap. The funny thing is, I bought mine used and when i was telling everone about it I said it was Flint Mica. Come to find out it was just dirty and it was really bsp. Im not a big fan of it until night time, then it looks good.
