Very chalk and cheese I know, so don't bite my head off.

Anyone ever done or seen a Matt Black Chim? I'm looking at one this week which may need paint and Matt suits some cars but not others.

I might try photoshopping one up?

Did think about this, but gut feel is that a *complete* paintjob won't suit the Chim.

However - did strike me that a *portion* of the car (bonnet between vents for example) in matt black contrasted against rest of car in a "normal" colour, may work very well...

I repeat - gut feel!

Actually i am a graphic designer so my PS 'skillz' are quite good, however this was a quick 30 second mock-up.

i dont like it actually from that picture.

p.s. If i stopped being lazy I would have PS'd too.

I'm looking at one on Thursday, it has those lovely Oz cross spokes that look like wire wheels, so I think i'm just going to get it resprayed in silver then retrim the interior.

Actually looks a lot better in the mock-up than I would have thought...

If you belong to TVRCC, a guy Dave Parry had his chim done last year, put a call out.

Seen a carbon wrap on a Cerb.

Personally I thought it suited the car well, not sure it would suit the Chimaera though.

There's an NZ racer done in Matt Black. I'll try and dig a photo out.
