My dealer (BMW) is currently painting me a sample of Matte Space Gray and I am considering painting my X Matte Space Gray or Black. I will get some pictures posted when I get the sample tomorrow.

This is a picture of a matte Space Grey X5 M-sport which was a one-off for Dutch customer. The job was done by a local paintshop.

Looks very nice IMO. I might go ahead and re-paint my car.

Why do you have to paint it when you can just cover the car with matte color vinyl of your choince as done by many?

It costs the same to repaint the car and do the vinyl. I have already done the vinyl to one of my cars, and in my opinion it is hard to maintain. With even the smallest scratch you must replace the vinyl for that panel. I might go and see a gray vinyl piece and compare it to my matte gray paint sample.
