Pics of OEM Matte Finishes?

Can we start to accumulate pics of cars in Matte finishes here?

This matte g 63 popped up recently and I can't tell if this is OEM or aftermarket paint or wrap:



Its a celebrity car here in the USA.

The front bars are also black so I'm thinking this whole thing is custom. Any opinions?

The matte is so much nicer than what comes from the factory. Wonder how much it would cost to get that quality of a paint job. I also like her blacked out bars and side strips.

Did you put the G63/65 bumper on your G55? Looks great! Are the Brabus rims 20s?

Oh right. I thought the side said V8 Kompressor over two lines then I realized the G63 would say V8 Biturbo over two lines not the older style 6.3AMG badge.

I disagree. Factory Magno paints have depth (almost a complexity). A blend of matte and satin. After market matte paints are dull and boring.
