Why would you do every car the same color? That's kinda boring.

if they were all the same car and same color I could understand the boring.. but different cars same color? after having AGM i wouldn't mind the same on future cars.. something about that dark look...

I'll give you a better deal, just give me the SLS and I'll do your other two cars for free! And that's a one time offer folks! But really I would do three different colors. If I was going to put a matte finish on any car of mine I would do a color that stood out like a blue or green. But if that's not your style then you could do one of them grey, one black, and one white.

That sounds awful cheap. You usually get what you pay for. I wouldn't be gambling with cars like those.

WTF 7000? Might as well just paint it and save some money.

A paint job would be another option. My young boy had his Camaro painted he didn't want to go the wrap route. I like the painted Camaro.

Only downside to a matte paint job is that you can't polish/buff scratches out.
