Err excuse me but what the f**k is wrong with `matt black`?

if people want to paint their cars matt orange\pink\blue\any colour then so be it! It`s nice to be different than the `norm`!
I say bravo to those with the bottle to go that little bit extreme! Each to their own! snob

Matt black always seems to look good on certain cars, it's easy to do as well. GR9 4 covering crap paintwork!
