Black to Matte
Got bored with Basalt Black so here is my transformation to Matte Grey Metallic.

I'm leaving the top spoiler, side vents, door handles and mirrors black. I also had my Turbo wheels painted gloss black.

Let me know what you think!

There are so many different vinyl manufactures out there. 3m, avery, oracal to name a few. Material isn't the expensive part. Definitely the labor is what costs. Was quoted $5K for the car.
