Azurite Black PPF: Clear vs Matte

Was hoping to get some feedback on anyone’s thoughts regarding PPF wrap on an azurite black f90. Really like the look of a matte black car, but wondering how the deeper blue tones of the azurite metallic paint will be affected by the matte wrap. Have tried googling matte azurite black, but have had very little luck finding any photos. Turned to the forum as it is the best resource anyway. Picked the car up off a six month lease about a month ago and have an appointment with the detailer on Wednesday to discuss paint correction, PPF, ceramic.

Thanks in advance for any insights!!

Took some photos in garage today that demonstrates the difference in color, from black to blue, based on lighting; suppose more for reference than anything else.

Yes I know the wheels need to be cleaned, but like I said in OP, appointment with detailer on wednesday...

Final product in various lighting conditions over the past week. Have noticed that it gets almost a really dark navy appearance with sunlight; the blue really comes out with the water when washing. Many thanks to IND for all the help with the chrome delete!!

Now on to more audible alterations...

@mmuffly

Having lived with the car for sometime now would you consider it more of a satin dark blue or a satin black?

I bought these wheels for my Azurite M5 and am considering either Xpel stealth or 3M Satin Black wrap.

Advice considering you have lived and seen the csr in all shades would be much appreciated.

Sent you a pm as well.

Thanks
