Matte or flat black paintwork?
Has anybody had the balls to do their whole car in it?
Looks pretty mean..... In a Mad Max kinda way :norty: http://lh4.ggpht.com/_NRSDCBt4i-U/Sr...lack%20sti.jpg Post your matte black pictures please. |

Not seen many in satin black, but they do look the absolute nuts:thumb:

do recall reading that the paint is more like a primer than a paint if that makes sense?!?! not as hard-wearing i think
don't know if that's the case...... |
does look the nuts!!
You can have your whole car wrapped in matt black vinyl now, i reckon better than painting it bcus you could always remove it. |

i matt blacked my drift r32 on the cheap after i had the old bill chasing me for it being three different colours look ok after it had weathered a bit but it was 4 of us with rattle cans if i was gonna do it id wrap it cause it will only be a fad like the flip paint
|
wraps are about a grand for a pro job
|
There's a matt black evo X and VIII I often see driving about my way.
Have to say they look mean as fook! Similar to this but better: https://farm3.static.flickr.com/2599...af8b19e5_b.jpg |
that looks tidy!! :)

A wrap has to be the way forward, at least you can reverse it come sale time.

will put some up tomorrow when i have washed it at work and the lights better in the workshop aswell

Have to agree a matt black vinyl wrap is the way forward, its not permanent and there is nothing like the amount of prepwork needed to get the paint 100% as mentioned above.

yes mine is matt black. the whole car. still got a little few things to sort out.
as for the above it is easy to flat back again and hide imperfections. but i must point out that it does weather bad. well not as bad, but you get what i mean http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/i.../Photo0670.jpg http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/i.../Photo0611.jpg i have done the inside of the wheel arches now and will try and get some better pics. |
stealthy!!! :)
|
Cost is around £1000 for whole car..
|

Do a google image search for "Matte black cars" to see loads of examples. Some are better than others.
There is a Matte Black Rolls Royce on there that looks nasty! :nono: |
