Just kidding. matt silver will be nice. matt white.... Maybe not. Do notice that most of the matt cars are darker colors. Probably because dirt tend to stick to rough surfaces more and will show up on white on matt

Rc3, thanks, I call them tomorrow to check the cost. I probably think a while until i get all the mods on first and then if really do it, just get it all placed on at once.

but its too bad the white picks up dirt. that woudl be an easier decision

I think these matte wraps are easy to maintain. You can even wax/detail them with the car care products. McGuire has products for the wraps.

Easier to take care than paint I reckon. I just noticed my repainted trunk lid is full of swirls. Probably the paint shop polish and wipe it improperly. I need to spend some time to fix it with the Swirlfix that I just bought. Awesome and really worked.

If DY spent disappeared all these time to mod his car, I fully expect to see a real batmobile running around in Hong Kong now

I'm a watch collector too

And I do spend time reading this watch forum called watchprosite. Very expensive hobby, more expensive than modding your F10

I'm sure there will be a few more here who collects watches. I heard from this hifi store owner before, HK guys only have a few toys. Cars, watches, and hifi.

hahah...watch collecting..uhhh...kinda (but I don't have any super nice watches over 100K)..but i realized i wear my polar watch more than anything else...

but watch collecting (for rolex at least) is better than cars...price appreciates if you keep it in perfect condition.

Or depreciates at a slower rate than cars. Hmmm the 1M might be the exception. Seems like it's going to have a very good resale value.

For Rolex, only daytonas and vintage submariners appreciate. Got one that I bought for $80K last year and it's now close to $100K.

There are other brands that can keep their value. Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Panerai...as long as you pick the right watch
