Default Matte White 4th Gen

I'm STRONGLY considering painting my 01 ss matte w/ with matte black berger pannel and hood scoop. If you have any pictures of a Matte White 4th gen please post them so that i can get a feel of how this will look on my car. i've found matte white 5th gens and z06's that look sick.

I have not seen matte white on a 4th gen but there is a local shop called KarTunz here in Dublin Ca, that was putting some custom forgiato rims on a cls550. The car is matte white and all the chrome pieces have been changed to black. Rims are black as well. The car is HOT!! I say go for it!!!

yea i haven't seen one in all forum searching and googling that i've done so i think it set, my 01 SS will be matte white and matte black, i bet its going to be sick as hell, most likely doing matte black anniversary stripes and matte black berger panel to really set it off. undecided on my wheels. i have drag lites on it now. considering a black chrome finish or powder coating them black.....haven't really decided yet.....any OP on that

I've seen a white car around Joplin, MO.. Just glanced at it, on a rainy day, couldn't tell if it was matte or not. Had matte white ZR1's and hugger orange stripes, I could almost swear the bodywork was matte white too. I'll try to snag a few pics next time I see it.

Ya I love this color combo. I want to do the metallic satin white from the SSX concept on my 1st gen with a black grille and taillight panel. It'd look sick on a 4th gen too
