choosing new wrap colour

[mstmng]

time to retire my frozen silver look, as wrap been damaged on most of the panels, by idiotic pedestrians who took pictures on car's bonnet and cutting wrap through during their "slide off", drivers who cannot park, etc

i know it is a personal decision everyone has different taste, however i want something unique, but at the same time stealthy looking, so it does not bring unnecessary attention from police.

I was already 100% sure that i am going to do gloss lambo/audi grey. I know many people have it in US on their m5's, but in UK it would be a unique m5. so i have started reading about opticoat, etc and remembered the time when my car was gloss SSII and how anal and ocd i am about all the swirls/scratches, etc. I should not care about wrap, as it already protects my paint from stone chips and all the possible marks, however i want my car to look perfect for my eyes all the time, so i kinda got away from idea of having gloss wrap

so now i am thinking to try and find exact same colour as lambo grey, but in satin, if anybody knows the colour code i need, would appreciate your help.

i am also thinking about other dark satin colour options such burgundy red, bronze, brown, etc BUT no way i am wrapping in any shade of SATIN BLUE, as it is the mainstream colour in uk

in ideal world i would go some crazy colour like frozen orange/red/green chrome, but last thing i need is attention from police with my set-up


any other unique, but stealthy ideas?

Well for my personal taste, I would definately go for a battle ship grey type of colour and I would have it in a gloss finish

where you thinking of getting the wrap done?
Dark blue?
Otherwise grey is sleek and stealthy. I have Singapore Grey.

i am doing it myself

any shade of blue is not an option as its current mainstream in london, otherwise i would have done exact bmw frozen blue colour!

What about frozen battleship grey? Can't wait to see how it turns out.

it would look like that
seems shit to me, but it looks matte, not satin, which makes big difference

My vote is gloss orange. Just don't choose ugly wheels.

yes i can imagine it in my head, but nobody has it, so it might turn out pretty badly

i might just do this colour in gloss, keep it for a while and then "freeze" it

It's gonna be on its way out. I am thinking M6 GC, but I am too big of a m5 *hore.
Definitely getting the 2018 M5 though.

yes, my brother has sent me this earlier today

i am not ready to deal with dark gloss colour
it will have a lot of swirls and scratches
but frozen british military green might work

m6gc is beautiful is right colour

[Dionysus]

lamborghini grigio titans (matt)

or

lamborghini grigio telesto (gloss)

For something different, how about matt/satin porsche amethyst or bmw techno violet?

I saw a Java Green GC on the M1 m'way a few weeks ago - lovely, but also highly conspicuous, so def. ill advised with RPi.

not fan of purple in general, but dont get me wrong, beautiful colour!

i got it down to these 2 colours for now, but still looking at options:






i would consider doing this colour, if material wouldnt be so expensive

tbh i did not expect anyone in uk to have balls for JG m6gc, we need to find the guy!
i was just showing it 2 hours ago to my friend, who is considering to order m6gc

i would love to have it painted from factory in JG and apply transparent matte on top of it, this frozen java green would look stunning
