I just got a matte dark red paint chip, and want some suggestions on what to use it on. Would it look good on a Yellow Bird?

It wouldn't be a yellow bird then lol. It really a matter of personal preference though. I have my premium Mustang gt painted matte red and I love it. I haven't got a dark red chip yet though so I can't really say.
 
I used mine as a coaster for my drinks.

lol. Check out the Matte thread in the Photomode section for some ideas.
 
I painted my Zonda R matte red a while ago and it looked pretty cool.
 
Matte Red looks nice on the Murcielago.
 
Paint the Schwimmwagen Matte Red. Looks like a fire hydrant. :dopey:👍
 
I have it on my Amuse S2000. looks pretty good and different from others.
 
In my oppinion it looks fairly sweet on the SLS...

Or is that normal Matte Red...? Can't remember....
 
I have a Lexus ISF RM in matte red, looks awesome. I think matte colours work best on boxier cars with big body kits, they don't really do curves and subtle lines much justice.

I thought it looked pretty good on the 240zg 71.
But the guy who painted it, repainted that car matte orange, because he said the matte dark red made the car look like something that fell out of his grandmother's cupboard. :lol:

BTW: I think the picture posted above by MrDinosaw94 is regular matte red, not matte dark red.

Doesn't the 240zg come in a similar colour to that anyway (albeit not a matte)?

Yes it does. I hate it almost as much as the stock wheels. Oh, who the Hell am I kidding? NOTHING can compare to those stupid dome wheels.

That looks like normal matte red, I have matte dark red. It's kind of ugly.
 
My bad... On checking my item list, I still haven't used my Matte Dark Red.
 
Matte Dark Red you say?

I used mine on a Dodge SRT-4, the Neon.

Makes it look like a rusty old ****box ;)

No offense to the people who love this car, I know this car is awesome with 600+HP, I think its awesome, just got inspired by a movie.

That actually doesn't look too bad. I normally hate matte paint.

You can paint any car just to see what it looks like, then if you don't like it, hit the PS button and quit the game without saving anything. Just be sure you have saved any other progress you want to keep before entering this painting process.
