What is the correct paint sheen to use under the spoilers?  Flat?  Satin? 
Contrary to the opinions of some, I am not dumber than I look.

On the AAR, there's no additional paint, just sits on top of the exterior paint colour.

The T/A has decal "patches" under the spoiler on each quarter panel. Some people paint the leading edge of the trunk lid the same colour black used on the tail panel so it matches when the trunk is closed. :alan2cents:

The blackout should match the quarter panel decals. I am 95% sure it is Organosol Black.
Here is an article from The Mopar Connection that discusses the blackout paint and how to replicate it with today's materials. They did the "Comeback Cuda" and the details of the blackout paint are very good.
