Well it would certainly make your RRS stand out but what about all the claims for compo when passers by get whip lash from doing a double take Current: I can't say...Oh the Shame!

I'm sure any bodyshop would give it a go. I think it might look but then again it might look awful. Best of luck. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

Go for a vehicle wrap rather than a respray - I've seen an Audi R8 done this way and it looked excellent!

Advantage of the wrap is you can remove it for resale/when you get bored! Like this site? Buy some RRSPORT goodies to show your support!

yeah i was also keen on matt black finish was quoted anywhere between £3-5k obviously theres a lot more to it than just spraying the outside they have to match all internal sills etc, i was very close togoing for it but like its been mentioned you cant do nothing with marks, scratches or stone chips so im guessing it will only be a few years before it would need a re-spray Current

blackboard paint from B&Q was £2.99 a tin, apply by brush no need to spray as the brush marks don't show

well it works OK for the MOD

Vehicle wraps are becoming very popular, all the Gumball cars are wrapped, the silver and gold ones look very 'special'!

Here's one from a company called Raccoon, this FFRR is in a Louis Vuitton colour scheme

Or how about this Red Arrows SLR?
