Diab2005 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Hi Anyone any ideas on how much it would cost to get the matte black look or satin black look? I'm in process of looking for 350 now and would be able to compromise on colour if I was doing this anyway? Cheers Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leosille Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 i was offered matte for £600 and gloss for £700 by carmodslondon.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 should be under a grand for that easy, depends on who does it, the quality of the vinyl and their skills. look for places that use hexis, and check their reputation online.

Diab2005 Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 Why wouldn't I wanna go Matte Black?? I was even considering Matte Camo but that could be a little too extreme lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got mine done by Taras at RT-Performance, he used a hexis vinyl and it's held up really well. Give him a shout! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikesding Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 How hard is it to clean? Or keep clean? Been considering this myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diab2005 Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 Might do Matte WHite?? How much did they charge mate at RT performance. The main reason is cost because then I can include this in my budget when i'm looking for a 350z ie. If i see a silver one for 6000 I add the cost of the wrapping on. At the minute im looking for rarer colours but these tend to be more costly. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtbiscuit Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 lot of choice on the matte colour spectrum the matte red looks good as does the matte yellow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Matt red is nice. Think the car needs a bodykit and bigger wheels to pull it off though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drayvn Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 How hard is it to clean? Or keep clean? Been considering this myself It isn't that hard to be honest, of course you don't want to polish it or use products with a glossy finish. You do have to get some specialist products. Supposedly the Chemical guys Maxi Suds II is good and is gentle enough it won't eat into the sealant on the vinyl. And also Chemical Guys Matte Detailer works. But Swissvax do a whole range of things for Matte paint, vinyl and Matte vinyl called the Opaque range. At the moment i have the Swissvax Opaque Car Bath and use the Chemical Guys Matte Detailer. The Swissvax is awesome but the Chemical Guys detailer doesn't look like it does much. So next i'll try the Swissvax Opaque Car Detailer. It isn't easy to keep clean, the tiniest of dirt shows up, and after it rains even for just a bit, it will be quite dirty, thought it isn't difficult to use the detailer and a bit of water to clean it up within about 15 mins. Might do Matte WHite?? How much did they charge mate at RT performance. The main reason is cost because then I can include this in my budget when i'm looking for a 350z ie. If i see a silver one for 6000 I add the cost of the wrapping on. At the minute im looking for rarer colours but these tend to be more costly. Cheers Matte White looks nice, Taras had one on an Audi when i pulled up to get mine done and in the flesh they look really good, pictures don't do them justice. I'll give you a PM about costs but the best person to get a quote off is Taras as prices do change a bit in our financial crisis! And thanks for the compliment! Matt red is nice. Think the car needs a bodykit and bigger wheels to pull it off though? To be honest most matte colours are great, it's something different to the glossy and shiney colours we always see. And here is where i'm at with mine, mind the crappy arch rolling at the back, should be sorted soon, which reminds me, i need to get hold of Taras about sorting it out for me!

Diab2005 Posted September 21, 2012 Author Share Posted September 21, 2012 Nice mate exactly how I want mine. Really can't decide on black or white though! White could be harder to keep clean but with tinted windows and some Black Alloys mmmmm...decisions decisions I suppose I've spoke to Taras and got a quote got some useful info!
