So i finally picked up my car. I couldnt get one with a night pack so i had to settle with a car closest to my spec i wanted.
Problem is i want to black out the full vehicle, as ive done with a few of my past vehicles.
The only thing im concerned about is the silver window trim, any ideas on how i can get these blacked out? Vinyl, spray or can i retrofit the night pack window trim???...
Also i will black out all silver and chrome, every single bit, i was wondering if i should make the wheels full gloss black? Opinions?.
it can't be counted as full blackout since there is no the most main part - the night packet
anyway its beauty. nice choice!
Ive booked the car in for the 30th of January, to do the full black out by a company called Race! (You guys should look them up they have built some amazingly ng csrs)
So it will be blacked out just wanted to see what people think, all black including rims or what..
911 991 TTS, Audi RS6 C7 Performance Edition, AMG GTS
Personally I would leave the wheels alone until I've seen the rest of the car fully blacked out and then decide. Are you getting the tailpipes replaced?

They will probably ceramic coat them gloss black for me, they have done it in the past for me on my CLA45 AMG and my M4
I've come across race a few times on IG, they have done some sick cars. Look forward to seeing your car once its complete.
They have really do some amazing work, im going to start off with this simple black out and as parts come out for the coupe they always call me to bring the car in for updates haha..
If anyone is wondering their instagram handle is race1_
Im in the minority here but the silver accents have a good feel IMHO... they contrast well; the rim linings, the front fascia, side lines, badges, exhaust, and rear diffuser sections all mate up well against the black car. It gives the car a bit of "class" in its look while still showing it means business in performance. Obviously doing the whole thing black will make it very aggressive.
@Vic55 @Guilty , agreed the silver trim does add alot more class to it, howeever im going for the mean super aggressive look. my last few cars have always been completely blacked out so its kind of my thing now.
Id wrap the silver trim so that i can revert at anytime so i know id have peace of mind incase i hate it (which i doubt), but badges and grill will be painted and most likely the wheels aswell...

Then go for it!!! Plasti dip the badges and wrap the other parts--- I plasti dipped my grill on my GTS with good results and the badges, no need to pull them off at all and you can always peel it off later:
I see you are in Gauteng, SA.
I did a full black out of all chrome on my C63 (Window trim included).
It was done by Clean Car Technologies in Randburg.
You can call Rowen on 079 890 3966 if you're interested
Not the greatest pics but you get the idea. I'm debating on painting the lower side trim piece black as well as the silver around both front & rear lower bumpers. The grille will be the last thing I paint or wrap
As part of blacking out I, Had the chrome on the door handles, front grill and rear chrome strip wrapped in satin black. Car also came with the chrome door cups that I had wrapped in satin black + xpel. Thinking of going with the black chrome look on the badges...
Yes, I do. At first I thought they would blend in too much, but I really like them. Looking at the Mode carbon CF rear diffuser now to get rid of the plastic in the back

Thank you!, did they need to remove the window trim to wrap?.
