I think these are easy to take care of but have the possibility of shinying up over time. Truth is, they just haven't been out in the wild long enough to know for sure.
Generally it only looks good on metal colors like silver, pewter, bronze, gold. In these instances it makes the car look like a sculpture by accentuating the lines and design, as well as bringing out the natural metallic lustre of the paint.

One exception is frozen black. Frozen black is simply stunning (to the naked eye but hard to capture in photos).

On dark blue it looks stupid. I haven't seem it on bright colors like Monte Carlo blue and am curious how that looks.
