W204 custom color

hey,

I'm thinking of getting my car wrapped.
its a black avantgarde model running on a set of 19".
(non-amg model)
the interior color is the yellowish beige and black.

any idea on what color to get?currently thinking of lexus's white pearl.
i like it to be sporty and elegant.

thanks for the inputs.

I highly doubt you can get a pearl effect from wrapping. Most wraps I've seen are matte or satin.

sorry for the late reply.. it has been a busy weekend..
anyway i live in Indonesia and i've checked around..

Normandie: that blue brushed aluminum looks great!! n some other color with that finish would definitely look good too..but none of the shops here have this finish..

knightmare: yes. unfortunately your are right. i can only have matte or satin color..

i will post pics today after work. i'm trying to avoid bright fancy colors because my car is stock and i think it is similar if not identical to the luxury model (not amg kit). i do believe that bright colors only works on cars with aggressive body kit..

i do like white, silver and black but seems that those colors are the uniform of many mercedes. i want to be a little bit different but not too fancy.
any suggestion guys? or should it just wear the black uniform?

Depending on the manufacturer of the wrap material, they should have an ample color palette. You can use a standard color but one that was not offered on the Benz or in limited quantity. See what they have first and then decide what to do. Good luck and I look forward to the pics.
