When you see the car from a certain distance, it looks all black, mostly matt... When you are closer it looks like it's grey, and depending on the light it seems grey and black, matt or glossy...!?!
So I think that the perfect shades or black couldn't be restituted perfectly more than it is.
I may follow same paint scheme for mine (damn, I now have 5 fiesta WRC to build !!) as I don't see better way to get somethig accurate close to reality.
Thanks, Phil. I wouldn't paint it anything other than black, just varying sheens of black. (Gloss/semi/flat.) I would love to get up close and personal with the WRC cars but they're pretty much nonexistent in the USA...
