I thought the whole idea of painting it a dull satin black was to make it radar absorbing like the black hawk helios and the stealth bomber.

By cut and polishing it will make it reflect radar and get the cops onto you. That's why commercial airliners are all polished nice and shiny and military aircrafts of a dull colour.

yeah not to much of a fan.... i think you need something other then the black rims to brack it up just a tiny bit. even just chrome would make it look better.

it also looks wierd with all the scratches up the side and the fact the front bumper doesn't match in under the sun light



please done take to offence to my comments or any of the other negative comments that'll get posted. my soarer's paint is pristine either.

Pretty sure you started off with great plans and intentions. The effort from polishing and stuff shouldnt be discounted too. However, I'v got to agree that the front bar doesnt match up.

In reference to Edisons pics, the first GTR looks more satin to me but it could be because its wet, the second is gloss.

That looks like gloss to me.

This is satin



And this is matte, no reflection or light spots at all, like a chalk board
