    I Want to paint my black MKV Gti Matt Black

    I've decided that my car has toon many blemishes in the paint and Im thinking Matt black. 1) Because it looks cool & 2) because my mate owns a paint shop with spray booth and it will cost me fa.

    Any one know of a paint colour code for the matt black?

    Paulie. Why don't you just get it wrapped? If you ever change your mind or want to sell you can just peel it off. It will definitely look awesome.

    option 1) vynal wrap
    option 2) plasti-dip
    option 3) full respray

    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

    FYI, Vinyl wrap is about $3k or so give or take.... not that I have ever looked into these things

    As good as matte looks it needs a lot more maintenance to look good. You'll need to use matte specific products (that are usually expensive) to get the best results.

    Please don't paint it Matt black......it looks cheap!

    As others have said, if you really want to do it then vinyl wrap it.
