View Full Version : Going Matt!

I've decided to listen to Q and go Matt Black for a more sporty look! The matt black fender grills and front kidney grills are on their way.

However, I'm not sure how that would go with my wheels and exhaust!

Thinking of powder coating the wheels first.

Any one with PS skills that can do that for me?

Perhaps full wheel coat, or only the spokes leaving the lips polished.

Thanks guys

Designo -- do you prefer egg fried or steamed? Think about that for a second before making any more "non-cosmetic" mods.

No doubt Q has a good taste and eye for when it comes to mods. However, I do find that matte wont be such a good idea on your ride, anywhere to be honest. So far it's so damn clean and sexy. The car really stood out at that meet you guys had.
But then again that's just me.
Cheers

I think its better to keep it as is. If your thinking of powder coating the wheels, i'd do it full gloss black, even the lug nuts. It looks badass as is or black'ned out. The gills and grill id do gloss. I dont know, your car is Sepang, not sure which will look nicer, matte or gloss, Its a hard color to play with.

Dont forget the piano black trim, the wood trim is killing it.

Flat black for your Gills and grill, keep the wheels polished just PC the barrel and mesh inner i gun metal.

Gunmetal doesnt suit brown at all man. Leaving the dish chrome is too played out.

i'll ask MKV to chop it tomorrow, sine its just the barrel not the lip it should be fine and look good. played out? yes, but designo wants that look.

Not sure how will it end up designo but either way shouldn't turn out bad though I think you ride is perfect the way it is

Well what to do... I ordered the matt black fender grills and kidney grills. I have a strong feeling that these two items will look really good with Sepang Bronze.

It looks fantastic Ed. Can i put in an opinion bro...with that look, it wud even look greater with these small items....Makes your car look meaner than it does now. Another thing to consider is to darken the side indicator covers...
