Ghosted... Faded ;]

 

someone spends $320,000 on it and someone still calls it a camEro I also think it's funny that the headline says "tunes camaro up to 1400 HP". 1400 HP takes a little more work than "tuning"!

I must be old now because I never heard the term "mudered out" and it makes me wanna someone for even coming up with it. What was wrong with "blacked out", not negative enough?

 

stormtrooper no lie..

 

I agree with you 100%. sounds like a tearm the white boys who wanna be black came up with to describe their black rattle can'd Hondas. And I'm not even old, only 20...

 

if done right (which i have seen numerous times), it looks good and doesn't sound stupid when you say it. i've seen mostly murdered out mustangs and camaros and they're sick, my friend has a charger and he's going to be doing the same.

they dont always have to be flat or satin black although that may be the definition. i've seen plenty gloss.

 

I saw a mid 90s vette at a show once and the best way to describe it would be "all light consuming black hole" EVERYTHING on this car was black, the engine bay, the interior, the lights etc. It wasn't flat black though it was a gloss black I wasnt real crazy about it but the thing that made it work was they had a blood red spider painted on the hood. I think they called it the black widow grand sport

 

What does "murdered out" mean?

 

Murdered Out.
Flat/Satin Black Paint
Black rims (no polished lip)
All exterior lights blacked out (a lot of people don't do headlight covers)
All emblems removed
Very dark tint.

Blacked Out.
Gloss black paint
Black rims (can have polished lips)
Parking lights/turn signals blacked out (taillights optional)
Emblems don't matter
Tint (can be legal)


Don't think i missed anything, May have though. but that's what i define them as.
Everybody has different opinions.

I have a black/gold iroc and I've wanted to switch out the iroc decals for black ones, so they're hardly visible, and put some black rims on it. But i just cant bring myself to change from black and gold

(edit, found a Photoshop i did a while back when i was pondering my idea, its not exactly "murdered out" but close enough to get an idea, forgot who's car this is, i found the picture on here. hope he doesn't mind)

 

Well, it doesn't sound like something I'd do to my Camaro, BUT, back in my younger days we did things to our cars that were not popular with the older bunch. We jacked up the rearend, had decals on the back and side rear windows, had duel cherrybomb, or thrush hanging just behind the front seat. I still like loud. I only have a small flowmaster sticker in the bottom middle of my hatch of each Camaro. They both rumble nice, but I still could use a little more rumble. Still left over from the 60's and 70's.

 

That is a beautiful wheel and tire combo, mind giving us the specs? They look like BOSS Motorsport 338's but I'm not sure.

Thanks, Dan

 

My black 92 firebird i just need to tint the windows.

 

Altho it dosnt look this way now- This is a pretty murdered look- just black out the side markers

 

Not exactly fully murdered out, but this should give you an idea... hope u like it.

 

I understand there are styles that appeal to different people, but just for the heck of it, why would you like that look vs original? Why flat black, and not gloss? Just curious. It is the rat rod idea?

 

Let's go back to calling it "blacked out". "murdered out" sounds so low class.

 

I have seen some older hot rods, blacked out, patina finished. Is that the same theme?

 

..the flat black look makes me want to cough..paint job looks parched..and there arent many of the "all black" themes I like because most of them look like the person ran out of money..or they didnt make it look that way on purpose..but when it reverberates throughout the whole car and the parts are in good shape, thats the only way it'll look good.

 

Im not really down with the murdered out look on the thirdgens.. It looks great on some cars and not on others. Heres a pics of a car that easily pulls off the murdered look. Vettes also do it really well.



Some of you guys must never get out lol "murdered out" has been out there so long its almost played out!

 

I remember seeing a Monti Carlo "murdered out". It had a well done glossy finish, but I wondered where the trim was. I thought they didn't get around to putting it all back together. It did look good though.

 

"Murdered Out" and "Storm Troopered" and concepts perfected by Rob Dydek as stated earlier and as most think flat or satin colors are cheap and easy but to look like his far from so. My favorite is Geiger.

yep....im definately goin 4 the stormtrooper look...cant wait til i get it out the shop

 

hawks made a stormtrooper

 

For the Stormtrooper look you definitely need to ad some Satin black accent. That means Satin black paint or 3M black vinyl. Maybe some unusual stripes or even chevrons for a quasi military look .

I know someone who blacked out all the lower skirts on his white Camaro with some truckbed liner. Sounds bad but it had a quality I can't quite describe. Sorry no pics but that car is long gone anyway.

 

It's a dumb-ss way of saying 'blacked' out.

still need window tint done, then shes good to go

 

I just have to say "murdered out" is a mouthful to say.

 

I hate "murdered out" Camaros, but this thing is sharp, absolutely beautiful. Changes some, not all, but quite a bit of my perspective on them.

 

My truck is close to being called "Murdered out". All I need is to paint the rims black, get rid of the billet chrome grill, and get smoked accents for the headlights and taillights.

 

I got tint left...

 

need to make the front signals darker, only thing not black is the red chevy symbol and it stands out so much

 

how about "still alive"

 

How about "Living in?" hahahahaha

 

Anybody got any pics of a Black 91 'maro with 17 or 18 inch black wheels with a polished lip? I'm getting one and I want to go with the "blacked out" look rather than the whole "undead" look,lol.

 

A pic of me at the track last year. My windows arnt tinted yet but oh well. This is about the only picture i have of it with black rims. I think im gonna re-do them back to stock and polish the aluminum... ive kinda lost interest in the murdered out look

 

hahaha seriously! i ALMOST said that

 

So, is the flat and satin fad over? Are we gonna see more shiny paint??? Hmmmm. Looks like one more fad to add to the last of fads I missed!!!! If everything old is new again, does that mean that lace paint and metalflakes will be back soon?

 

I Love the murdered out look I currently have my car satin black like this one

Planning on doing it over really clean this time, adding smoked turn signals 2010 metallic silver camaro wheels tinted windows and going with the klearz smoked tailights with the sequential led kit.

heres mine after sitting 6 months....its been a year since iv touched it (busy with bootcamp and training for the air force)

 

Dont know if youve seenthis but its pretty close! I personally think it is going to be awesome!

Beautiful ride man! I love it! Looks clean and sharp!

 

"murdered out" lmao

 

older pic of my girl's car

 

That just looks black, not murdered out.

 

murdered out, you mean a car that's been butchered, has scissor doors, rice burner tail lights and a paint job that only appeals to the minority of people who claim to be car people. All the "murdered out" looks I have seen here in eastern WA is a bunch of kids who painted their cars with rattle cans in an afternoon, didn't wet sand to even it out, and just called it good, so yeah i can say its been really "murdered" for a car.

 

flat black on mine just seemed more modest, building the engine and leaving the exterior low key appealed to me

where as the glossy, candy paint and body kit wrapped around 160 hp thing seems slightly embarrassing

unlucky for me it seems to have become a trend with the sideways hat/t shirt past your knees crowd and called "murdered out"

im contrary to hipness and allergic to teenagers so now im gonna paint it bright neon yellow.. really

 

Another way of saying, it looks good now. Blacking out the head/taillights, wheels and windows would make it look like s***.

That's a really nice looking car ya got there!

 

Semi-Murdah! (except for taillights)

 

Someone already did...in a show back in the '80s >:-)

 

I love the fuel door where did you get it????

 

It's a Bullitt Mustang fuel door. It fits perfectly in the recess. A little modification to the plastic filler trim and 2 part epoxy to glue it in place.

 

wow i was actually just thinking about going with the flat black look for my 86 love the pics above its deff gonna be a contender for when i go to paint i was also thinking of a wrap any thoughts on wraps?
