The ITR black - Nighthawk Black Pearl. Black in most lights but under some conditions you can see a Blue Metallic shade

Jesus christ dude. Who the hell taught you how to type? I hope for your sake that you don't type like that when you turn in your english papers to your 5th grade english teacher.
FBP FTW.
