Matte black anybody???

Anyone paint or have a picture of a matte black 4runner? mine has seen the end of the end of the hard core trails and just want to change the looks of her!

I really like the look of the matte black paint job. Anyone have one?

I have spent a lot of time in photoshop so why not have a little fun at it and besides I was thinking of doing something similar but I was thinking of flat black and a color strip like this

Damn Shaun, you been on a boat or something since you left here? Your rig looks the same as it did before it was shipped. Hope life in Hawaii is treating you good, good to see back around here.

The dictator of paint jobs has spoken.

I am surprised how good it looks. Anything looks good flat.

when the last of my factory red pearl chips/ rusts off i will definately go for a flat black paint job, i have seen a few rolling around town that look sick! as for now i have a black strip of ruberized rocker panel/ bed liner paint on my lower regions that i am considering doing my entire truck with!



sharp lines? like what? a jeep? ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh snap!

I'd consider that more of a dark charcoal than matte black... but whatever it is, it's still sweet looking. I liked matte black back a lot more before sideways-hatted fools started calling it 'murdered-out'; that ruined it for me. It's become too 'popped collar' for me at the moment.


The flamed one looks pretty sweet! The color-stripe one looks like it's trying to be a wagoneer Nonetheless, Pchop skills are better than anything I could do, so I'll shut it.

I don't know if you're serious or making a joke.
