Do you know how much BMW would charge to paint a X5 in frozen gray?

Do you think they would do a frozen gray X5 ///M?

Anywhere between $2500 to $5000 to paint it. They charge more as certain parts are done by hand instead of robots/machines. The M5 above is not offered in frozen gray but the guy got it. If they can do on M5 why not X5 M. I have seen things happening with BMW. It depends on how the dealer presents to BMW NA and your relationship with dealer.

Thanks for the information LeMansX5.

The first picture of a matte black X I saw was an X6. It looked equally great.

Theoretically repair work for matte black should be cheaper than gloss...no clear coat?

Although I doubt its this simple, the paint is probably mixed differently and stuff.

If its vinyl matte then you have to first fix the dent the regular way and then put the vinyl again. The pics daripper posted is actually space gray X5 with matte black vinyl.
