2025 CLE 53
Not my style, but if you like it - bravo !
Is there a way to make the black on the rear appear more cohesive (not sure if that's the correct word). The patchwork look is a bit jarring. I think the frontend looks good

You have a good eye. Phase two is to blackout everything above the character lines.

Anti-glare paint
Tradionally, the hood, cowl, and tops of the front fenders were painted with Black Crackle. Only the areas that would cause reflection for the driver or navigator. It was a factory option on the AMC Javelin in the 1970s. Its use went away as the hood became prime real estate for advertising.
I had three street/rally cars painted this way in my youth. It really helped when working into the sun. It was almost impossible to clean as the "tooth" in the paint will pick up lint from a cloth or paper towel.
A lot of aircraft come this way from the factory. A reflection could cause the pilot to miss something that could "ruin their whole day."
