Matte black XLR

[Comfortzone]

Has anyone seen an XLR done in Matte Black?

I saw a car done in it over the weekend and think it would look great on the XLR. It would look just like the Stealth Fighter Jet.

sure would cut down on the waxing...

I actually like matte finishes on cars. Makes it look like it has more muscle.

The first time I saw a car done in matte we were in LA .... I thought they were cars with a coat of primer on them ... I think you need the light to show the subtle lines of the car. Not a fan.

It's definitely an acquired taste.. Love it, or hate it!!

You no longer have to paint them matte black, they now have wraps. That is what most of the people seem to be using now.

Well that's pretty cool.

Looks like it is custom designed and installed. Certainly should protect the paint assuming it comes off well.

I agree... cars done in matte look unfinished with just a primer. Not a fan, either...

I just sent my grille to the chrome shop, no way I'm covering it up I've seen several cars here around L.A. including some high end exotic ones done in the matte black. I think it looks good on certain cars, I think the XLR would look pretty mean in it.
