Matt Black
Re: Matt Black
You could try Satin Black. Almost between Matt and Smooth. I did my scooby bonnet in this stuff and looked great, especially after a little back to black lol.

Re: Matt Black
As above, alot easier to clean. Just pulled up a pic of my scoobs. I did the bonnet, part of the front bumper, my wheels and the top half of the 2 piece rear spoiler and it looked sweet.:-

Re: Matt Black
Do not do it matt black.
My mate does spray painting and a lot of people think matt black will look awesome, but it really doesn't unless the car is super clean. But keeping it super clean is very hard and its a pain in the ***. UK might be different, but its so easy to pick up dirty and dust from anywhere.

Matt Black Vs Gloss Black
Compare The Pair !!!
It's like Clothing Fashion these days!
Defective, Poor Fitting and Lack of Colour Co-Ordination, doesn't matter anymore!
The Choice now depends on 'The Look' that You like!
Scruffy or Clean Cut???

Re: Matt Black
I think that Calibra's would look bad in Matt black because they are old..
However, a wrap would be a cool and cheap way to test it out!! I know a guy that said he can do this as he does vinyl graphics etc.

Re: Matt Black
any idea of a price for a wrap, I here they are pretty much the future... rather then spray jobs...
I like the rough look, almost madmax theme...

Re: Matt Black
To be fair the semi-mat black does suit the calibra. Gives it an evil look! but, I don't know if I could do it to my car tho, I like the natural colours, they're more classy...
