I will try to get a picture of the sample up, although it won't show much detail.
Are you thinking of this for the X5M?

No, I am thinking of doing it on my current X5. I may do something similar to my X5 M, but only time will tell. Here is what the car should look like if I go through with it:

Matt space grey, looking nice and silky. probably all the metallic paints would look good as a Matt finish

That matte steel grey does look better than the black to me! Kinda looks like bead blasted aluminum. :thumbup:

Someone that lives 200 yards from my house bought a matte black X6 recently....not sure about it myself but I can see why someone would like it.

What do you guys think? I think it would be perfect with gray tint!

I was wondering what a Space Gray would look like in matte. I think I'd need to see it in person to make a final judgement.
