It actually looks alright, i love how the BMW's look when painted mate and this looks great as well. Although when some one does it the car need to match the attitude 100%, Mate paint is almost like saying i dont give a fuck about the paint but i got some crazy shit going under the hood... So if you stock and do it just for the color- its a bit silly

To prevent these pics from becoming lost, the pics have been uploaded to my hosting service. And to cast my vote, the pics make my heart flutter. Just what I need to complete my Terminator motif. Some day

Did Aspec really cost eight thousand dollars from the factory?

What a waste...

I was thinking the same thing. It would also look ten times better lowered a bit with some decent rims

I like the look-the stealth black works. Wonder how that would look on a Type S !!!!

I like it. It needs wheel spacers and a drop to look good.

Man this car looks hideous to me. To each his own but why would you want to drive a car that looks like it has only primer on it ?

Do you really want to buy a car from some jackass who goes through the effort to make sure that 69 is displayed on the temperature settings.......
Not to mention, that paint looks awful. Looks like a car done in primer.

thats the temp my car stays on most of the time, or 70 at times also, so idk how he made an effort to change it too that

i am not even sure if they are true A-specs at 8.5", they might just be the 8" ones powdercoated in gunmetal (which would lessen the need for spacers )







then inaccurate for the picture saving





then rajca, is this your CL in the background?

OMG that looks disgusting. I mean hey if you want your car to look ghetto or like you cant afford to get a paint job so be it. Its just unfortunate that it was done to a car as nice as a TL. When I see matte finishes I think of old primered beater civics or something like that.
Some things I will just never understand.

At the Chicago Auto Show there were several Mercedes with matte finishes. I don't know if they're available or if they were just testing them out. There were black, white and silver matte finishes on some of their higher end models.
