I dig the non metallic silver. Hurry up with the pics!
|

Matte black... sweet |
COME ON X5 WHERE ARE THE PICS?!?!?!?!?
More pics of the matte silver in the meantime. Absolutely stunning in person. Just flawless :thumbsup: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...t/IMG_0889.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...t/IMG_0891.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...t/IMG_1028.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...t/IMG_1030.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...t/IMG_1031.jpg |
That BMW is gorgeous.
We now know how to make a bunch of mini nuts go insane; just tell them about a matte black mini and dont release the photos. :impatient: |
haha this is true
|
Sorry for the delay guys..they were still putting everything together last night. I'm picking it up this afternoon....for now, here are the pics he sent me....
I've seen an R56 in Matte Black...but not an R53 yet so hopefully I can own the bragging rights...or not. :razz: http://i697.photobucket.com/albums/v...I/DSCF0307.jpg http://i697.photobucket.com/albums/v...I/DSCF0308.jpg http://i697.photobucket.com/albums/v...I/DSCF0309.jpg |

I'm jealous!!! If I had the money, this would definitely be my color choice too. Can't wait to see the completed job. :thumbsup:
|
It looks good, but I for one would miss the super gloss of a freshly waxed car on a sunny day.
|
Looking good. Actually Lyle of Vinyl Styles has a matt black R53 but it's in vinyl, you can do a search and see pix. I saw this car at Bimmerfest but it was BRG. What he did was sand off the clear coat giving it a matt finish. Pretty interesting technique but looked good.

Mr. BlackX5.
I saw your car at Danny's grand opening for his new shop. My son and I looked it over on the street for about 5 min. Your car was one of the best looking Mini's to my eye I have ever seen. Just a perfect combination making for very clean lines :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: . I can't wait to see how this comes out as I love matte finish. I want to see it in the light with all the goodies put on :thumbsup: . That Silver 3 is just awesome looking. I've always wanted to paint my roof a silver kinda like that. What I really want is the silver off the McLaren F1 cars. Are you going to add any strips back? Shiny silver strips like the McLaren silver would look trick against that flat black :wink: Longboard |

My painter is now experimenting on some other matte finishes...I'm excited to explore more options. BTW - love that SLR. I work on Sunset blvd. and I see one done in matte black too with some purple trims. Just last week I also saw a hamman edition murcielago in matte black....and his buddy parked behind him had the same exact ride...but it was in matte grey. Wish I took a pic. |
That looks really good. So what are the other finishes he is working with?
|
looks good, now you just need a joey mod, do it!:thumbsup:

- matte white, silver, dark silver, charcoal grey......its going to be SICK! I'm actually trying to convice my buddy to have his range rover sport to get painted matte white since he has his trim pieces painted balck.
- JTREM is actually helping me out this weekend to do the joey mod. Can't wait. |
Wow, very well done! Looks real nice X5. I would love to see it in person. It would be great to see some daytime shots too when you get a chance.
VERY NICE! :thumbsup: |
the 3 day weekend will give me plenty of time to do "creative"photo-ops!

I like the Euro off center stripe paint it into the car would look sweet

In the meantime, I experimented and installed some red pin-stripes for added contrast. I think its a keeper. http://i697.photobucket.com/albums/v...I/IMG_7491.jpg http://i697.photobucket.com/albums/v...I/IMG_7508.jpg http://i697.photobucket.com/albums/v...I/IMG_7510.jpg |
Amazing looking MINI! If you Joey mod the lights I think it would finish it off.
|
Red pinstripe FTW
Keep it for sure |
I love the pinstripes, and agree that you should joey mod the lights, maybe put some red in there too?
|
Looks sweet! Hope I see your mini running around in LA. I have no doubt pictures are not doing it justice.
|
you have a range rover sport? i wanna see that's my next vehicle!!!

Ramsey looks great. Must look jaw dropping in person and I agree that the pin stripes are a keeper! |
Awesome looking although, personally, I' leave the red pinstriping - too A-Teamy for me.
|
