HELP...I WANT A MATTE WHITE CLS!

I have an obsidian black 2012 CLS63. Don't get me wrong I love my black whip but the more I see pics of a matte white CLS, I think I should have got a white one.

I am considering getting it wrapped in matte white. Any advice? Is it a PITA to keep clean?

A wrap is a little more difficult to keep clean and certain things like finger print, etc will show up a lot more...

I have a few cars that are wrapped. My CLS is getting done torch red right now. Manual wash only with Los pressure. Other than that I keep mine waxed and maintained like normal

I thought you couldn't wax a wrap nor could you use a pressure washer?

Low pressure=hose, no pressure washer. The guy that wraps my cars recommended that I wax them. I have wraps on 3 cars currently and have had full or partial wraps on 10 cars.

I had it on one of my M3s. I absolutely loved the look of it. It was a hard choice between that and the red for the cls. I say go for it, it'll look awesome.

Go for it. It's simple to take care of. A lot easier than OEM matte paint from mercedes!
