Matte White?
Hey guys, Ive been browsing this site for a year or so, thought id finally post something!, I bought my first corvette last week 2001 drop top . I am wondering what you guys think of a matte white paint on a C5? with a ran tan. Ive seen it on c6's but I'm debating on doing it to a c5, thought id come to the c5 brotherhood to see what your guys opinion is.

It would be an interesting look on a C5!

Would really have to see a pic of that color on a car to decide whether I would like it or not. Generally I'm not a fan of matte paint on a car.

How about flat white stripes on a white car, something I was thinking about. Wonder if someone with photo shop mad skill could do a rendering of a whole car and maybe one with just stripes. I think the flat would look cool especially with black rims and accents.

Before you request matte white, see about satin white. Satin white you can say is slightly brighter then matte but still keeps that sinister edge to it. Total matte white may not be what your looking for.

Thanks, I'm going to go see satin white tom and choose between that and matte white.
