Why I went matt - just wanted them like that, didn't like gloss black.
agree some of the body kit is gloss but that is front and back, the Side view has no gloss parts only carbon mirror so doesn't look out of place or not matching
sure will post some pics probably tomorrow night haven't had time to take many ☹️.
I'm pretty happy with the outcome, and the car as a whole.

You haven't got the gloss black strip along the bottom of the body under the doors ? My 7.5 R wagon has it.

I'm leaving my Prets stock but looking for a second set of wheels and debating matt v gloss options - given a lot of the black plastic is fairly gloss on the 7.5.

I'm keener on matte myself, but interested in opinions.

PS: if anyone is interested in a 'group' buy of some premium wheels (OZ, BBS, HRE or ATS) then please let me know.

cant upload pics sorry Dutch77, unsure why. Will try and PM you.

Some fairly average pics of the matt black Pretoria's and dark as can legal tint and Motor One carbon wrap.

I have lost tracking of the Torino for the past few weeks (due in Melbourne in day apparently), but found this site intersting and has updated arrival info.

I want to paint mine gloss black, but deciding whether to change wheels altogether! Tried spare OZ Racing Superleggera III's on but not sure about them maybe they need a black centre but they are too aged for the MK7 i think.

Thanks to Exoticars helping getCTS Intake on, Eibach Springs in. Few more things to go.. getting there slowly. XPEL PPF'd the full front end, still haven't bothered to get around to applying a coating for now (gyeon quartz it'll be).
