Very nice indeed. It almost looks like a Satin. I am going to "dip" my w124 in a Satin black and glossy black wheels. Good inspiration with your car.

damn, that paint is sexy - I wouldn't even be mad if someone keyed my car, I'd go matte white in a heartbeat with that insurance check

I was debating on matte white or black. But my car is originally black so engine bay would be black. That's why I stay with the matte black.

Even though this color wouldnt be my preference, it seems the paint job was dont right. How hard is it to maintain a matte black paint job?

Maybe one day I will understand making your luxury sedan look like it needs a paint job....but not today.

I do love the car though.
