wow i can't believe you guys like that matte look
the s15 looks nice because its a damn nice car
why would you pay a shop to paint your car when it looks like it was rattle-canned?

im gonna try to do matte black come summer time..i think its sick

whoa the camo did not go down well.. was not expecting that!

its well liked over here in the uk and ireland.. oh well

WHAT is that car that the OP posted?? That thing is effing slick.

It's a s15 Nissan Silvia. If that is what you were asking.

/\ yep its an s15.. had an s13 before the celica, great car

photoshopped the camo again but went for a different softer kind of pattern..again only a rough take..


need to re-arrange the black.. but its 2am, im just home from a 7hour shift and i want my bed.. but this idea just refuses to go away


if anyones interested, this is my inspiration:



but mostly this

HAHA D1NZ.
its a pretty mad rx7.

Im a hunter and Im not to big fan on camo on a car.

My mate is going to get one of his utes (B2000) camed with mossy oak. (personally im more an advantage MAX4 kinda guy)

mossy oak


Advantage MAX4

I wonder what that would be like on a celica hahaha

I agree with the others who say that it always looks rattle canned. Anyone have a picture of one done by a paint shop?

It doesn't look like its been rattle cann'd..there are a bunch of show cars with insane matte finishes and they look awesome..including that first pic by the OP.







I dunno, I've seen a Lambo with a matte finish in person and it is damn gorgeous. I guess you also have to see it in person to realize its a nice change.

It only works on modern, luxury cars IMO.

On our cars it would just look like primer.

I just had the sickest idea...an R8 in flatte black. Matte black rims, body, and side blade.



Such a nasty car

Matte black does not equal rattle can primer/flat black. Matte paint jobs are typically done with a LOT of wetsanding...
