alright mate, whats the offset on your wheels? :p

haha you having a laugh? Read up some posts lol

i was joking, hence the ':p'

looks really good in those pictures, bet it looks better with the 15's though.

don't like the fact that matt paint often looks dodgy in 'professional' pics though. (no hate on you, just my opinion on matt paint in general)

Its usually down to the way its be painted. Just like a glossy finish can look rubbish if its not done right. Matte is exactly the same. A lot of people use matte as a quick once over with a rattle can. So its often not prepped properly and you'll never get a good finish out of a rattle can anyway. So bad prep teamed with crap paint is always going to result in a bad finish regardless of if its matte or shiney. Its not actually anything to do with the paint being matte, its more to do with the time, effort and quality of materials thats gone into the work.

yeah no i understand that but if you look at it in real life its not patchy or anything i dont no just the way it comes out in HDR photos makes it look like a bad job, it wasnt done with rattle cans, it was all prepared and sprayed properly
