Not a huge fan over here, but to each their own.

Welcome.

umm how you say? murdered out?

I've always wondered on the maintenance to these paint jobs(Flat,Matte and Satin). Do they show fingerprints and stuff and do you clean them the same way as a glossy paint?Obviously there is no clear coat put on but i heard there is such a thing as a clear satin coat they can use now that will make any color you want have this dull effect. I've seen it before at other car shows that had rat rods and such but never asked about how they maintain their paint jobs.

the look isn't for me, at least not on a Lexus but to each his own and i'm glad you are diggin the look. The KAZZ gril does look good in black though but the front bumper is a little too fast too furious.

Keep it stealthy on the streets bro'.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was just thinkin'.

What if you painted just the roof super glossy and left all the rest flat black?. Maybe paint the (R.I.P.) chrome body trim glossy as well.

has anyone done this before?
