    Option 1 and 2 are reversable.

    and I don't know that matt black has a paint code. matt black is matt black! lol

    Personally, I think it'll look ****e after a week (it'll always look dirty) and drop the resale phenominally! hence I would do option 1 or 2

    Guess I should have been more specific. I am interested to know how the colour is made up Every color has a paint code. I'm assuming there is no clear on top? Not sure what is the final finish?

    There are three ways the Matte finish is achived, no clear coat (cheap way), using a matte clear coat, or using regular gloss clear coat with matting agent.

    Yes those cars do look cool but at the end of the day they are all exotics or luxury cars and no matter what colour they are, they are always going to look cool regardless.

    I've seen one of these in the flesh in the UK (granted it was an Edition 30) and it did look **** hot, but it had a lot of money spent on other details other than the wrapping.

    Definitely wrap it though, you would have to be pretty dumb to respray a car that new because you have a few blemishes on your paint, wait until you buy a write off, that justifies a respray
