flat / matte black mono

[RC944]

anyone have any examples of cars with a shell painted in flat black only for a stealth look?

im thinking of spraying gloss black from the inside and then applying a few coats of flat from the outside to take the shine off

will it look tacky? car is an xx4 WE with black wheels and white wheels

Not the clearest of pics but here is one I did. Black is matt and the rest is gloss.
Yes, apply a matt clear on the outside.

How resilient to scuffing is the matt clear on the outside Jon?

i almost bought an mv but thought i would go for a more reliable (n alot cheaper to serive!) honda
but dayumm that f4 was lookin good n very tempting!
