Matt black pictured below is a production panel
The window on my 80 is very close to the actual color but mine is a painted prototype not the production panel.
Im looking to have the ladder to also be a swing out tire carrier support as well, I dont like how the rear tire moves forward and backward on certain roads during highway speeds. I'm waiting for the spindle on my swingout to work harden and snap off! I know its a quality product (4x4 labs) but id rather error of the side of caution!

The powdercoat we use is a fine textured black BK-59 Cardinal Black - Cardinal Paint is a very popular finish that translate into a quick turn around. We consulted with the experts at Gorilla Industrial – Powder Coatings for a choice to have a quick turn around, be very durable and resist scratching from off road use. It has proven to be accurate from our feedback.
Powdercoating these days is very resonable and if our choice does not meet your needs the cost to change is less than $20. Gorilla Industrial offers 100+ colors and texture to meet anyone needs.
My windows are Krylon textured black also recommended as a touch up to the powder coating we use if ever needed. So its a very close match to give a better idea on the actual color and finish.
I'm interested in getting a flip up

Christmas dozen all ready spoken for.
Taking deposits for the next run available after the first of the year.
I'll just wait for the second go around. Not in a big rush.
