I personally like the look. Very clean, and very stealth-like

I love it! Gotta call Don up for this haha. Seriously though, I think matte black cars especially SUV's looks great.

There is a member that lives here in socal that has his 550 wrapped. I have seen it in person and I must say it looks awesome.

I think it looks better on the 3 series. If this were an M5...maybe...

i love the look of matte black. it needs M-Tech kit though.

the quistion is- how hord it is to keep it this way. i wonder if it starts peeling/fading after a while..

I think it looks great---totally badass.

I also think that the matte look is going to be the 'next big thing' that sportier cars will have. Lamborghini has been doing it--instead of their crazy sherbet-colored cars--and I think others will follow suit.

Wonder how much it costs to do this. Anyone know?

BMW has already started the matte charcoal with the m6.

From what I've heard the wrap costs around 3000
