Respray - Matte Black?

[shaneo_1]

at the moment looking at a full biuld of my xr ute. engine and paint

currently it is rapid yellow, but as need to paint my fibreglass body kit, and custom bonnet when I finish it, looing at a full spray,

and wanted somthing differnt , so instead of the yellow was thinking matt black,

whats everyones thoughts? rapid yellow or matte black? or any other sugestions?

matte black looks porn

matt black looks amazing- but oddly enough it needs to be straight as or itll look like a dinger someone has painted at home. how about vinyl wrap? then it can be returned to rapid much easier down the track

also if you get a mark on it- ie bird poop and need to polish it off, it will go shiny and look garbage....

matt black is for show only imho...

vinyl wrap would be sweet - any idea on cost vs paint job

......................Thought about wrapping? check out the Exotic Kustoms gallery.

thought about wraping but not keen on it,

yeah the ute is straight cept for dents on bonnet, but I am making a custom bonnet anyway.

just an idea at the moment, looking at enigne build, and while that was being done was gonna spary the ute.

its not really a daily, more of weekender, my partner has a xr5 so we use that alot.

not sure on mechanical, got a couple choices, but wont be massive build, already have most gear on the ute including gt42r and 50mm wastegate

just gonna add some spool rods and cp pistons and main girdle and oil pump gears just to be safe and run low 20s to 25 psi through it.

as for custom bonnet will be doing it my self, got a couple options, so far its a xr8 hump widened and extended to back of bonnet reverse scoop style with whol of back oped to release hot air.
