Be sure to tell us what you really think...

Very cool, I do agree it is pretty hard to tell it apart from the SG color but it looks pretty sweet none the less!

I think that might just be since the vinyl is dirty

maybe not though..

BTM · 06-11-2010, 08:27 PM

Not my thing. If you like though

yamazaho · 06-11-2010, 08:49 PM

To be honest IMO, I don't like it as matte black reminds me early BMW e46 that was sold, they were all matte black and look cheap BMW so owners have to pay optional to have their mirror side painted same as body car. So it's like going in the past. Get CF mirror cover will look your car better than wrapping it with vinyl but you do what you want with your car.

That's what I meant. Now the wheels have to be matte, too

MCMLXXXIX · 06-11-2010, 09:18 PM

it looks like it was re-painted but the color came out darker.

better off going with carbon fiber or black...or keep the same color of your car.

Krozi · 06-11-2010, 10:44 PM

lolwhy?

bluespeed117 · 06-11-2010, 10:58 PM

yeah im not digging it. Those wheels dont help either. I would go CF for sure.

jeveryday · 06-11-2010, 11:44 PM

i like it... All you need is some wheels to match. Keep the theme going and it will flow better

shuarma · 06-11-2010, 11:57 PM

not feeling it, sorry.
