Default Matte Black IS-F 2010

Hi guys, just wanted to share some photos of my newly matted IS-F. I had been thinking about doing it ever since I got my car and finally bit the bullet and got it done. The result is a absolutely NO REGRETS!! I love my new ride even more now. The matte really shows the contour of our IS-F. In my opinion, not many cars can pull off the matte and I'm glad that our car is one of the exceptions. Later, I might smoke the head lights and tail lights a bit just to match the color. Anyway, thanks for looking!

great look, especially with the CF accents around the car! flows together at every angle, but i wouldn't tint the headlights or taillights. gives some contrast to the car, which is a really good thing!

How the heck do they do that ?! It actually looks pretty cool, can you reverse it back to painted ? What color was the car before wrap?

Don't understand why the fake carbon fiber accents are so popular.

Looks nice. Lose the carbon fiber gas cover though and you'll be set.

The other CF pieces are fine, but I'm not feeling the gas cover. Looks a little bit out of place.

Looks amazing, IMO i wouldnt black out the tails or headlights, maybe black house the headlights but thats it. Looks clean.

Out of curiosity, how much did you pay? Just ball park figure.

Yeah, you can definitely take the vinyl off and reverse it back to painted. It actually would protect the paint and with 5 yrs warranty, you can really beat that. XD

The color is black, by the way.
