Absolutely Beautiful Hellcat but I Respectfully disagree that it's anything but subtle! Your car looks like it''s ready to rip someone's head off .....and I like it!

You did a Great job! (y)
Appreciate it brother. Sometimes the satin black stripes can come off as subtle and dark depending on how they react under certain lights shining on them and you would have kinda get up closer to the car to see them.

You and I have very similar taste. LOVE LOVE the satin black stripes on the black paint. Was always something I wanted on my last Hellcat which was black. Never did it though, RE came along and I wanted a change from the two black Challengers I'd had already. Not a stripe guy at all but the subtle offset between the two black shades is perfect. There is a fine line between tasteful and tacky and you have found the perfect tasteful side of that line. Not over the top, just "leave me alone" which is what I shoot for too lol. No need to scream for attention with bright stripes, doo dads, chrome, etc. Love it.

Nice, now blackout the badges & do the calipers in black :D

To be honest I’ve had thoughts of doing that as well but seeing some aftermarket black colored calipers on these cars left very little to be desired for my taste because the quality of the paint would never match as good as the factory paint.

I’ve also seen the blacked out Hellcat badges but it didn’t appeal to me all that much and seemed to just blend in to much with the cars black paint. I like my badge having some color contrast as is so people can see the badge clearly and know it’s a Hellcat. ;)

You can get your factory color. automotivetouchup.com Been ordering all my paint from them for years & always matches 100%. FWIW, I did my calipers in Hemi orange engine paint. No issues.

Looks awesome man. I just bought a new 22’ Black Challenger Hellcat WB a few weeks ago.
I got the SRT Black package option with it too.


The idiots at the dealership damaged some areas washing it. It needs some paint correction first. I was gonna get the paint correction and probably ceramic coated. Needs window and side marker tints too

Thanks brother and congrats! Hate when the dealership causes some sort of damage to the vehicles. Make sure they fix it man cause that's not right. I've had my fair share with dealerships, hope everything works out and yea I definitely recommend you do all those things.
