matte black car wrap?
I'm thinking instead of getting a whole paint job... why not get my car wrapped in matte black... seems like the popular thing to not kill resale value. I've seen it on many exotics. Any idea how much this would be and where in the MD area I could get this done? Maybe Kieran can do this

I almost did that but was worried about it peeling in certain areas and just overall not giving the right effect unless it was done the correct way. Redline Design can probably hook you up

OMG i forgot about this option! Anyone know how much this kind of job costs? What kind of company should I look for to do it? A paint shop? I'm in Nashville... i hope I can find someone around here to do it.

PS anyone seen the matte black evo at montrose before?

I'd say between materials, install time and 2 guys working on it you are probably looking around $1500 to $2000 depending on the shop you take it to. Plus if you want it wrapped really good the headlights, tail lights and other things should be removed wrapped and then installed again.

Because my car is already black I probably couldnt get away with doing just parts of the car in flat black. I would probably look real good on a redline Z though.
