Sorry I'm not good with photoshop but you should definitely go with matte grey as it is more original than black...I'm in the process of going matte white

+1 i think matte grey would look better and definitely give you some originality. matte black is becoming more and more common so i say matte gray! matte gray would also compliment your wheels

Looks good bro, but is there a Matt Gray Vinyl? If there is, you should go with Matt Gray. My buddy with his Black E90 just did the Matt White in local.

you can make it, using grey vinyl and matte laminate them. but It will cost more than matte black. I'll see how andrew's car works. but it will be better if someone is kind enough to PShop it.
