I'm sure i saw a mat black finished beemer the other day, it certainly looked different
I'm sure once it's finished, it look a lot nicer than it currently looks with the pink paintwork

I can manage the rat look quite easily, not sure it really counts if it's unintentional...

I recently saw a new Bentley Coupé in 'stealth' finish - satin/matt black with black wheels and tinted windows. Imposing and a little sinister.

There's not enough rust showing to be the rat look, however rust could always be painted on
