Default Satin Black Vinyl Wrap?

Okay so I've seen plenty of Matte black vinyl wraps, and what I need to know is if it is possible to immitate the satin black look. I've got a potential sponsor who might wrap my car for free, but I wont let them put any garbage wrap on my baby.

For those of you who don't know the difference between satin black and flat(matte) black:

Flat black = meh...


(Your car has to be seriously bad-*** to pull off the look)
Satin black = sex...


(compare it to gloss black in the background, you can tell the difference)

So can the above pictured Lexus' color be reproduced with a vinyl wrap as well? Anyone know?

A buddy of mind will be buying some black vinyl to put on his 06 Acura TL and maybe do a black roof vinyl for my DB 350z. I'll let you know how it goes.

Rims would have to be extremely simple like te37 or something. I wouldn't recomend it either because the weight of the vinyl wrap is probably a bit heavier than paint, and might throw off wheel balance... just a guess though.

Rims can be wrapped.

However, any brake brake dust will stick hard on to the vinyl wrap, hence not recommended.
