flat grey paint

I've always thought flat grey would look great on a r32 skyline and I want to paint my skyline but I'm having a hard time finding good inspiration. Is there any examples out there anyone know of? google did not help lol

Why? If your car's paint isn't ruined right now then why? Flat colors look awful in my opinion. Especially when painted with specific types of paint which require clear.

Anyway, your car, your choice. To each their own

Actually body has a lot of rust and some touchup paint so i though might as well, the satin sheen does look pretty nice if you can get it right

We did this paintjob for a customer not too long ago and its a "matte" grey and it came out beautiful, specially when its wet but its not glossy. But to each their own.
