well i'm not really sure about your confusion, but the ones in which it is black are the painted ones

. thanks for the tip though. i wasnt really wanting it to look pro, its just a beater. as for cost this only ran me about $80 and i didnt need to buy a spray gun or compressor or anything so it looked like the cheapest way which is good. it should last fine though. its 3 coats of paint and 4 coats of satin clear.
