    Paul, don't go matte. Stay with gloss - resell value will be much higher, and matte will get played out over time, unless you have a really specialized car.

    UNLESS you have aftermarket wheels with aggressive offset, aggressive stance and at least a front lip or some type of body mods.

    thats just my opinion though
    i have staggered wheels/lowered now (19x8,19x10) but i'm gonna do new matte black wheels, lip kit, shave badging/grill, and black out lights.

    I love how everyone says what is played out... I had a matte black euros back in 2000 - now you see every 240 or "drift machine" try to do it w/ spraycans. Maybe I should go HELLA FLUSH to gain street cred lol. Losers.

    Matte black was nothing special in 2000 either, it's just that the 240 crowd IS what has made it seem played out, unless you're in something special though than it can be pulled off sometimes.
