one more thing, since you asked... regarding the matte/satin black finish... I think it's a trend, and that you'd "date" yourself going with that type of finish. You'd also severely limit your pool of buyers (were you to ever sell it) by going with such a specific paint finish. Yea, everyone says they'll never sell their car... but it happens... A LOT. The whole "matte-finish, murdered-out" thang seems so played-out around here. I've seen too many cars with a do-it-yourself matte finish. You can't tell if they meant it to look that way, or couldn't afford a decent paint job & got out the rattle cans, or if they just stole it from Maaco. There's one guy in town that did it to his chrysler sebring convertible... But whatever... if that's how you want to roll, so be it... YOU'RE the one who needs to be happy with it.
