I'm completely fascinated by the matte black foil. I think it looks amazing!

Congratulations on the car. The color combo is great.
Not a big fan of the matte plastic on the car; but the tint must be required in the climate you are in. Enjoy it in good health.

Now that's unique---a very interesting look! Please tell us a little about the foil's care and longevity. Is this a common method to preserve paint in your part of the world? Very cool looking vehicle. Congratulations!

Again, thank u all for the nice comments, really appreciate it
And yes, tint is a MUST over here ( had the car with no tint for 4 months and couldn't take it lol)

regarding the foil, cleaning it is very easy. plain water is usually enough and maybe once or twice every 2 weeks with a car shampoo( i use prestone car wash). Also, i noticed that matt black doesn't require that much care(as opposed to bassalt or black) since it hides dirt and dust very well. The foiling method is not THAT common, however u will be able to see at least 2 cars per day depending on where you drive (excluding weekends). IMHO, i think that most do it for the bling factor rather than protectivity(many colors to choose from) . however it is very effective againt stone chips, surface scratches, doesnt show swirl marks and protects the original paint. the comapny that did my car gave me a 5 year warranty so im guessing that it holds up pretty well.

hope i answered your questions ,
feel free to ask about anything else.
