Default Matte red....to do it or not to do it....hummm

Ok so I have been debating on re-painting my entire car DuPont Hot Rod Black...aka matte black, for a while now when all the sudden I came across this...Not sure what it would look like on my S. Anyone good enough to photoshop my car to the same matte color of this one? Any input...likes or dislikes? Still not sure if I like it or not, but it might grow on me.

i personally say don't do it nfr looks better on the S. I think matte colors look like they're missing clear coat, but i do think your mods look aggressive enough to pull off matte red.

Maybe if the whole car was painted Matte Red. Personally, I wouldn't do it but a vinyl wrap would be an option. Too bad it so expensive.

I think it'd look great. I've been talking about doing this for a while ever since I saw Mercedes rock it on some of their show cars.
