The murdered out mk5 in this month's PVW looks pretty sweet imo.
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3

I'll have to dig out some pic's of my old mk2, was about 10yrs ago, that was proper black on black. Loved it.
That was before it was called "murdered  out" :grin:



Just realised my pics will need to be scanned in :laugh:

Matt black is pretty cool.


cant wait!  :smiley:

Old skool man,  actual pictures of a car that you can hold in your hand!  :laugh: i have some somewhere of my very first mk1!  might try n dig em out some day!

Old skool indeed, makes me feel about 103 :grin:

You don't own a Mk2, you support it.

I'm not too sure about OTT on black although saying that i want mine to look pretty dark and evil. for some reason i'm really loving the matte/satin black theme at the moment though... real stealth looking.. each time i find a car especially the ones done by fellow forum members, the more i love it... found another tasty mk5



That is nice!!!!!!! :cool:

[/quote] Yeah i know, i know....  :laugh: :laugh: but the combo of matte and tinted windows gives it a real dark look... Prefer it over murdered out.

To finish the look i'm after (Semi-Murdered), Satin black paint and mild tint to the windows with smoked front lights and the rears the same style as i left them from before, 50/50

unless your paint is dodgy i'd keep it gloss. matt/satin is cool but you do get fed up with it after a while and its a pain to maintain.

a lot of the more modern cars with satin/matt finishes are wrapped, which is just cheating

I hear you but sadly the paint is dodge.. the entire front end needs repainting and although the paint was really good on this car the 5 years locked up in a poor environment has taken its toll.  I would love to keep it as it was but i have big dents to repair, deep scratches, damaged laquer and the whole front end to respray.  I did a test spray the other day on the lower half of the O/S rear quarter including bodykit and i'm really happy with the look and results.  i know its not the the best to maintain but its not going to be my daily so not too worried.  Also i have found that when washing it all it needs is a quick dry. Water does appear to bead when rained on......  when i am totally happy with the car, its on the road and everything it needs has been purchased i will be saving for a full pro respray back to how it was but that is not my priorty.

modern cars and the wrap thing looks really good if done in small areas, like bonnet & roof! i like that personally.
