Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

Well guys my car is going in for some paint again. Going to change the look of it. What do you guys think of a matte black hood, roof and trunk? heres the pics of my car.

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?

rice

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

why?

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

whole car or nothing

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

matte is gross.

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

looks better now?

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

seems like everyone is painting their cars. I would personally leave ur paint alone..... looks fine.

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

Either paint the whole car or don't do it at all.

Besides, nothing looks wrong with your car now? Would you drive it off a bridge if someone started a thread here saying they did it to theirs? Quit trying to follow the crowd and do what you like. Fvck everybody else. You have to drive the car everyday, you might as well enjoy doing so.

haha it look nice the way it is. i rather spend money on other parts than paintin the car. if u not goin to enter any car show, then is pointless to paint the car diff color or diff style. well is ur car, do whaever, long as make urself happy lol.

nay, matte black will make it look like a cheap beater

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

No way Jose

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

Wow. Harsh words from some. Not really trying to follow anyone more like stand out from the crowd. Just getting sick of the JDM theme and too many people are duplicating it. My hood and front bumper are full of rock chips. I also love what novitec has done with the F430.

go againt the grain.

The only way it will look like a cheap tuner is the paint job is crappy

paint ur headlights instead

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

Just what I was thinking..You should be worrying about gettting you headlights blacked out and tails tinted first...

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

all or nothing.... your call. HOw much is your paint job gonna run ya?

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

I think if you are going to do it, do the whole car. black out your lights, get clear fogs and black those out, tint the tails, and darker tint. Your wheels will look great with the matte if you do the whole car. I would try and find someone good with photoshop to make you some pics.

and make sure the paint job is a good one. dont get maaco to do this kind of job.

on a side note...what wheels are those?

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

Thinking about switching the fogs. Tinting the tail lights i'm not a fan. Plus here in canada you will get hasseled for it. Same with tinted windows.

The rims are 17inch rota circuit 10's Colour is royal bronze

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

yea tinting the tails is UGLY imo.. i dont know why some people do it.. it almsot never looks right in my eyes...i like the yellow fogs, they flow well with the bronze.. ur car looks great how it is.. u can black out the heads like most people do but i dont think its a necesity in your case..everyones doing that anyway.. if ur gona go way out n different with the Matte theme, then u might as well stick with cleared headlights... the matte will look good all the way around but make sure its not cheap looking.. u dont want it to look liek primer.. and yeap..those rotas are gorgeous...

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

I would do it to the entire car, while leaving everything else the way it is right now it would look great, can anyone photochop this?

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

how do you like that color? i was gona order my circuit 10s in royal bronze but the guy at jlbmotorsports said that that paint chips after a while

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

Ya they do. You really need to keep them in good condition and baby them

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

i wouldnt do it.

Re: Matte Black Yay? Nay?
 

glad i got the regular bronze then!
