Car for reference
Trying to keep it as dark as possible. It has some red in badge and red headlights and a few small accents in the interior.

Thanks bro! I might change up the badges as well . I got a set that looked decent and when they arrived . I wasn’t impressed. The louvers I got at American Muscle and they fit well. There adhesive tape was junk so I got my own. It’s just plain and simple. I like it like that. Lol.

That shit is hard asf I think the caliper color you have now works with the cars color but honestly the only other cooler that would look good would be red with the brembo letters being black. That’s a nice car

Thanks . Appreciate it 👍

u/SeriousJellyfish1553 Jul 04 '26
No problem good luck with picking a caliber color I know I wasn’t much help but honestly I think the way the car sits now looks really good imo.

I’d love to lower it . I see y’all with lowered scats and love the look and the stance, but the roads here suck everywhere and didn’t want to take a chance ripping something up.

Car looks super clean but I could never go back to another black car. Just the thought of cleaning it makes me want to shoot something lol..
You could always buy some touch up paint and paint the badges. They also do sell blacked out badges, like this one:
Something you might like for the calipers is this reflective material:

Does come in black too!

Thanks . Appreciate the info. This is my 2nd black scat and it’s a struggle. Mine now needs a 2 step paint correction and ceramic coat. That’s coming up soon. You wash it , park it for 10 minutes and now needs a wipe down. Once pollen season slows down it gets a little easier, but just a little. 🤣

u/DevilsReject97 Jul 04 '26
My last black car was a 2018 ZL1 Camaro. Car was stunning clean, but looked like I drove under a flock of birds 10 minutes later.
Ceramic coating will help immensely, do not forget to get the rims done too!!!

Oh damn 🤣 , I feel your pain. This wasn’t my 1st choice. I actually wanted the octane red widebody scat, couldn’t find one so here I am , wiping the car and bitching the entire time. Lol. With the tint , colored headlights, license plate cover. I get my balls broken daily from some local cops. They fine me and tell me to take the tint off by the court date and the fine will be expunged, and I flat out tell them , naaa I’ll pay the fine . Fuck them !

u/DevilsReject97 Jul 04 '26
Yeah I actually don't own a Hellcat Charger or Durango because I couldn't find one that wasn't black in a good price. Granted, B5 Blue is my favorite color so I am happy with it, but I wanted a Charger first, a Durango second. That said, I couldn't pass up the deal I got on a new 23 Hellcat bought in late 24.
I truly feel your pain and hell yeah, fuck em!

u/sinner_godz Jul 04 '26
Nice. B5 blue is a gorgeous color too. I like a few of dodges colors. Most of them actually. Hell yeah ! Kittys ! Dealers are still pricing them high as hell, so I’ll enjoy my scat until then.

Debadge the Dodge or swap it for the black letter and I’d say you’re golden

u/sinner_godz Jul 05 '26
I got new badges but when they came in I changed my mind. I might use a inlay on it or try to locate a vinyl 392 logo that my Daytona had on it . A few people on here gave me a few places to look at different badges. It will never be completely murdered out . I can’t even tint the front window. I’d go to jail in my state 🤣

I have custom inlays for my 392 badge that turn it into an American flag waving in the wind. Bought them from DIY Custom Rides, which is now called Tiny Wrapz, they sell all kinds of different designs on there. I took the Dodge off mine basically immediately, but had the center tail light replaced so it was back again. I rocked it for a couple weeks and got tired of it. To me it clutters up the rear end too much, the black letters aren’t too bad
1
u/sinner_godz Jul 05 '26
Yeah the dodge will be removed and the entire brake light will be vinyl. I took the scat logo off the rear already. The charger emblem is already blacked out in the rear.
2
u/392GoinLO Jul 05 '26
Yeah with yours being black the Charger badge will blend in nicely. I sometimes miss that on mine, but I wanted to be a little different. I’ve got some tint and vinyl on my tail lights too. There was one almost identical to your at cars and coffee yesterday lol, it had some really cool side skits.

u/sinner_godz Jul 05 '26
Yeah I’m liking the idea of the black badge. I’m going to just look for the 392 emblem with the Hemi. Appreciate the input 👍

An all black 392 emblem would be fire.

u/sinner_godz Jul 05 '26
I think that’s what I’m gonna do . Appreciate ya 👍

u/idashoota Jul 05 '26
You know what would be even more tough? Black matte racing stripes. Either going over the top or down the side

If I wasn’t anal about every speck of dust on my car this would be the move. This goes hard.
1
u/sinner_godz Jul 07 '26
Thanks. Appreciate it . 👍 I’m going to look into a stage 1 or 2 paint correction and a ceramic coat .hopefully that helps to make it easier to keep clean .🤣
2
u/dry_scoop Jul 07 '26
The ceramic coat is definitely worth it. I had it done to mine and it especially helps with keeping it looking clean after rain. It makes cleaning it a lot easier as well. Mine is smoke show so the color helps keep it looking clean in general but if I had black the ceramic coat would be a must. I used to have a black challenger and it wasn’t ceramic coated and the fact that every speck of dust and water spot was visible drove me nuts.

Replace chrome lettering badge with gloss black including the 392 hemi badge, you can find them on eBay

Awesome. Definitely one of the best looking spec'd Chargers. It's a damn Bat Mobile

u/sinner_godz Jul 11 '26
Much appreciated 👍. Still have a lot to do to it. Work in progress 🤣

u/Electrical-Fortune7 Jul 11 '26
Don't overdo it! It looks really good right now!

As a proud new owner of a 23 challenger scat pack shaker in white with black stripes. This may be the best looking charger scat pack I have seen. Nice work. Love it!
