btw, how do you keep it clean? Do you use any special wax(mother's back to black sort of) or something?
As far as I know, flat black paint is super tricky to take care of.

I think people are a little harsh on this. It's not my style either but I really admire all the work that went into this. I am interested in how this project will progress.

The 'vip' crowd must have a hard time driving these things. I know they are bagged, but it still looks like a pain in the butt to deal with.

I live in Iowa, no VIP cars here. Just doing moderate drops here is a pain because of steep drives and other rough situations.

What series tires are you running. Also, what offset are your wheels? I'm running 245 on my 20x8.5 and I don't rub.

Those wheels on that color car clash imo, but to each his own.

Matte black is fine, though it's not my cup o' tea.

The Mercedes is badgeless, has black wheels, no chrome, no amber markers, it's clean, doesn't have bright pinstriping, has an aggressive bumpger, and it doesn't look like it was photographed with a cellphone.

That's what I find wrong with it.
