Does anyone know if there is a paint code for the part of the rocker panel that is painted black? It looks like a satin or matte black, but I would like to know for certain if possible.

Ron some people have said in a prior thread that they used high temp barbecue black satin paint, with great results. Rust Oleum makes it and can be found at Walmart, Home Depot, etc.

Ron - I came up with the idea of having mine wrapped in carbon fiber instead of repainting and ultimately having rock chips soon thereafter. Talked with your guys at Atlantic Dealer Services and they said there is a new wrap material coming out soon which will be the most similar to real carbon than any other wrap product on the market. I'll wait until he gets his sample and then decide.

No rock chips on mine. I actually installed them in 2017.

Actually this would be a wrap material and not true carbon fiber. I couldn't find anyone willing to make the product in real carbon.


Nice work.

I'm planning to follow up with Michael at Atlantic tomorrow to see if the material is in. Hopefully it looks good enough to have them wrap that area around the exhaust outlet. He showed me two other wrap options with a carbon pattern and I wasn't impressed, but this new wrap is supposed to look very close to the real thing. We'll see.

On another note, I have to head out your direction tomorrow at some point and might take the Viper. If so, I'll ping you to see if you're home.
