Matte finish option for C63?

Just saw a S series Hybrid at dealership which was done in designo Plat with Matte finish and all I can say is "wow" The look was outstanding and really stood out. I am wondering if AMG/MB had or would ever offer the matte finish as option on C63

Thanks for the find here. 4500 Euro = $6,000 USD! Pretty steep if you ask me, but it does look great!

I read over on one of the bimmer forums that there is a clear matt wrap. The guy put it on his X5 for his wife, and it looks pretty good.

Here is a link to his thread.... he mentioned a vendor for the wrap somewhere in the thread.

Edit: He posted the vendor in another thread, here is the info if anyone is interested. Maybe you can cover ur car in this hubbs032.

Its called Aerotect Frostbite matte clear bra.
