There is a guy adjacent to my office that owns the Stasis R8 test mule - it's wrapped in matt black vinyl and looks pretty awesome.

I think they can look pretty nice and if you are going to do it get it wrapped not painted. If wrapped you can remove it and the paint under will be perfect. If you paint then you are going to restrict your resale to the small group of people who would like the look.

Extremely retarded, especially on a 328.

Very few cars can pull this off, and a 3 series BMW is not one of them.

For the $$ that you will be spending I think I'd upgrade to a 335 first.

Vinyl it for a few K.

My close friend got his '69 Mustang Fastback painted in flat black for $1300.00
you are getting ripped off if you pay anything over 2 or 3 g's
