well this woman at my old job had a 3rd gen camaro and she got it repainted black with 3 flakes it was green, red , and silver and looked bad *** she said it cost her 2200 also on monster garage the other night they had a rx 7 painted black with smoke flake i was wondering what that would look like, i dont really want a certain color like red or green or blue, i mean it looks good if u have a red car with red flake but i dunno if they make a black flaker or if u would see it on a black car that y i was thinking silver or gold or smoke

flake is metal when they do a colored flake it's just the metal has an anodizing(silver comes up gold) it does reflect different (I think mine gets some greenish tint in the right light)
