To the OP, as far as preference, I would have been happy with either, I think the base paint in MB is SB.

Well today i had the chance to shoot some magnetic black paint on some body parts (painter) and ill have to say. I like Magnetic black much much much more than Super Black. As far as a color magnetic black is much sexier and a much better "color" @ that.
While super black is nice it is just so plain, its deep but thats about it.
Magnetic black has the beautiful metal flake and some of you may not know this buut the magnetic black has green pearl in it which adds allot more character to the actual color.
just my .02c

IMO, I saw a MB and SB in person at a local meet at D&B's Irvine, and to tell you the truth, they both look very similar. I am partial to SB though. Can someone post a pics of MB in the sunlight? I'll do the SB.

Nice pics B ...
The MB does look just like SB on the road and from distances, but up close is where the difference is. I think up close sometimes it doesn't look as clean as it really is because of the flakes. I'm not sure which one I like better now! Used to be a SB owner and now a MB owner ...
Those Ings skirts looks great BTW B ... really impressed. I always thought if I wanted to get something painted for my MB it would be hell to get someone to do it right.

Thanx Mahnot. They came out pretty well. Ill have to take pics when its on Justins car, were putting on a vertex front and ings sides/rear. its really wierd how the color is. WHen i lay the base coat u cant even tell what the final color is going to look like. u can barely see the metallic and no pearl at all but man when the clear goes on all the colors just jump out. This is one of my new fav colors for the Z.-B-
