obsidian black metalic or regular black on GLS 2022
I'VE JUST ORDERED THE GLS 400D 2022, I CHOSE THE REGULAR BLACK BUT I'M SO CONFUSED ABOUT WHICH BLACK WILL LOOK BETTER ON THE SUV, THE OBSIDIAN BLACK METALIC OR BLACK??
HELP ME, BECAUSE I COULD CHANGE IT TO THE OBM.

WHY ARE YOU YELLING?
I would go for the OBM depending on price - from what I understand it's a higher quality paint and has a nice metallic flake to it. But it will be harder to source and more expensive to repair most likely if you get any body damge

I have had both and I will go with the obsidian. IMO the metallic paint gives an upscale look as opposed to 040. The metallic paint also hides swirls which isn't the case with 040.
