It really suits that Silvia. And dents show up alot on matt/satin too. I'm not too sure about it on a VL though.. maybe satin black over MX grey? It'd really need breaking up just a bit on a VL.

your getting confused matt black is on that skyline satin is on the audi both very different, satin done right is easy 10g job and you can clear it to make it "shiny" lol Satin with clear satin in raw Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
