Matte Black!!! On my 2010 C350 4Matic w/ 18'' AMG Wheel

Recently got a friend help on my Mercedes. Since the car is getting old and lots of paints are falling off, he recommended me to paint plastic dip.
The color is fabulous when the job is done!! I can't believe, it feels like the car had a second life and reborn.

Anyway, here attached with some pictures and hope you guys can enjoy them.

Any ideas or suggestions on maintaining this paint, please let me know.

Thanks guys! Haha, my buddy said it could last at least 2 years and if don't like the color any more, simply rip it off and no damage at all.

Not a big fan of dip. If you plan on keeping the car for awhile, look into a full vinyl wrap. Does look respectable though.

Is that the original finish on the wheels?

I'd uncover the badge and the emblem for some contrast but I know many people like that stealth look.

I wouldn't think a 2010's finish would be in that bad of a shape? Although around here the gravel haulers and dump trucks spray rocks and sand on the highway on a daily basis.

apparently there is this new rave of plasti dipping a whole car in half a day, and its going to blow up and be in most vinyl wrap shops. Well thats what the guy who gave me a quote on vinyl wrap said. He was really trying to sell me on this but I wasn't having it until more people do it. I just like the wrap but don't get me wrong it looks like a excellent job was done on your car, I like the matte black look! good job!

he also said it would be cheaper than wrap but the colour choices won't be so great at first. If your going to go matte it might be a better option if you like to change the colour of your car often.
