Matte black is like a fauxhawk. Flat black ftw. Matte black = “I want to look hardcore but i’m not really.” ---

I believe satin black is more glossy, and most of the paint jobs her are just gloss black with matte clear, I could very well be wrong though, lol ---

It’s amazing how much more tolerable the looks of the GT-R are when the whole thing is one full color. I’m so sick of the new trend of cars having black windshield surrounds and black front grill surrounds. ---

I’m so sick of the new trend of cars having black windshield surrounds and black front grill surrounds. I was also surprised how much better it looked in flat or matt black.
