    S4 in Matte Black

    Hey guys,

    The boss decided to try out a Matte Black wrap on a B8 S4 we had in stock.

    The car was originally Imola Yellow, which we then painted the 5-Spoke 19" Alloys (See: Talladega style) gloss black.
    If you check out the front, we also blacked out the Fog Light surrounds as well as the front grille.
    The chrome surrounds around the windows and exhaust tips were also painted gloss black.

    It looked awesome in Yellow and now with the wrap, it looks like a stealth fighter.

    Probably should mention that this vehicle is for sale.
    If your interested, PM/E-mail or call me and I can fill you in on the ins and outs.
    I haven't posted it here to try and sell it though, just something to "ooooo" at.

    Looks awesome with the matte black and yellow insides!
    The tails need to be black or cherry red though to match imho.

    It's a b8 mate, any reason why the door jams weren't done?

    Oh bugger,

    Thanks for mentioning, that's what I get for not proofreading. I'll fix that...

    The door jams often don't get done on a wrap. They obviously can be, but it costs more and because you don't see them when the door is closed, sometimes it's not necessary. It's something a bit different too, opening up the door to such a contrasting colour.

    Little bit too honeycomb for my liking there. Might've worked better if you started with a different colour car

    With the doors closed it looks alright though

    Not my decision to wrap it.
    Personally I would have left it yellow if it was my car, but someone else out there will love it.

    You can only see the yellow if you really look for it with the doors closed. I included the open door shot because it looked abit different.

    I am on you with this one! I have seen many wrapped cars and all the door jams/etc were usually done or covered for a dramatic change but of course this is a cost factor!

    I prefer the yellow thats for sure!
    What’s behind you doesn’t matter..

    I had a photo of it before it was wrapped. It looked brilliant with all the gloss black.
    I'll see if I can track down a pic.

    Am I the only one who kinda likes the yellow door jams? Haha.
