Sorry, but matte black is faddish.
It's kind of cool now, but in 2 years, people will ask you how you got a bulk discount on spray paint.
Think twice before doing it to your own car.

You see dozen's of flat black Astons, Lambos, Porsches in London. I agree it's a look that was probably in a few years ago, but not a long-term good idea.

For a track car, sure. But most of the cars in Mayfair aren't seeing a whole lot of track I suspect...

No headlight washers, no hood badge, and no bumperettes.....anybody on here?

That rack setup is for a surfboard.

R-compound tires too. Hardcore. But the rear-wheel arches look aftermarket and not factory widebody.

I kinda like it! Gives it bit of night riderish look or stealth fighter

I was wondering why it looked so wrapped around...

Sorry, I just don't understand the appeal of having a car that looks like it's in primer. Neat car otherwise.
