calling all matte car lovers
« on: 07 July 2009, 14:00 »
right ive recently brought a gti off here, hate shiny paint and love matte.

pretty much i have a matte black car at the moment and im going to get the new gti sprayed after i do the body work on it. what colour though? ive got the idea of either matte silver or matte black again.

back to the point, if you could all put up pics of nice matte cars to give me some more ideas for colours, doesnt matter if it dub or not im just looking at the paint.

cheers  :smiley:

if your going for a decent rat look theres a lot more to consider than just the paint imo

To be honest he was asking a question, no need to slate him lol, to be honest i quite like matte cars as it is something different and can look good in certain circumstances. Dunno why but ive always like the red oxide colour for some reason  :lipsrsealed:

**cues for abuse**  :grin:

I wasnt being abusive  :grin: Just my opinion.
Hundreds of people just get fine cars and matt them,or rusty bonnet them.
Ive seen mk5s with rusty bonnets they have left outside in padling pools full of salt water for a month just to get a ratty look.
It just looks a mess.

My mates just resprayed his polo with satin blue paint, cost less than £100
Cheap and decent look, not mega shiny like you mentioned you done like, got a nice finish on it too.
