Just Murdered out my Gloss CF EuroTeck front lip
I was hoping to see more of the weave, I just used a flat black but it's still not dry and I bet it's going to get a few more coats from the rock chips. It was thrashed and chipped regardless. Look mean no matter what!
I just jacked it up and painter taped it. No overspray. They have these new handles that you can put on top of the spray cans. They work really good.

If you want to try a satin finish, you can try the Rustoleum BBQ grill paint. Make sure to get the Ultra as that is the satin finish. Regular BBQ grill paint is flat like the one you have. The Ultra makes it a deeper, darker black.

Anyone try mudering out the stock AMG tips.
I suppose you hit it with some wool, then a few coats, should be a easy plug n shoot n play job.

I'm also running matte front grille / matte mesh grilles.
I used a matte uv protectant enamel clear coat to make my gloss CF spoiler a matte one.
Eventually I'll pick up a diffuser and front lip in CF and matte them as well.

Ahh thats what I should of used, but the flat black still loook very mean and you can see some weave. It's very easy to strip the FB and UV Coat it if I get sick of it.

I did another coat of FLITZ polish on the yellowing headlights..wow..this is no flash.I had a the side race shop door open with some light coming through so the flash did not go off. Lights are off btw
Edit, I did a spray coat of Chemical Guys Silicone Instant detail for protection and a lil sheen on the grills.
