Flat Black Paint Job

[BET-RHD]

I have seen a few threads where people have talked about it. Has anyone up to this point done it? I am painting my car next weekend and I am planing on doing it. If anyone has pictures that would be great!
Also looking at bronze or black Rota P45Rs. What do you think?
Here is some of my inspiration








Also Here are the wheels what do you think?

I was contemplating doing a matt black paintjob on my GTO a-la F430 TuNero style, but then decided against it. And trust me, if you think black is tough to keep clean, then this is even tougher!

I have painted a customer's suzuki swift in matt black before. Heres a pic.

roughly, how much does it cost to get a paint job like this ?

I'm guessing it wont be too expensive, but i'm not sure if there's anything special put into a matte black color, But technically black is the cheapest color to paint a car so as long as there's not extensive body work you shouldn't be looking at too large of a bill.

Not much difference in cost from a regular black paintjob.

Instead of the normal glossy clearcoat thats used you spray the black with a "matt clearcoat"...

The trick however is to get the coat perfectly even otherwise some areas will be more matted than other areas bringing up the uneven spray pattern, which is not visible as much in glossy paintjobs.

Cheers.

I would say hyper black or flat black wheels with no polished lip. Just to give that ultra stealth look.
