What about a matte Xpel coating over the EBII? I saw a pic of one that looked pretty sweet...

Wraps look like the car has faded and dirty paint.

Why ask perfect strangers what color to do your car?

If you really need to change EBII then I agree a matte clear over the EBII might look pretty sweet. something that gives a frozen look would rock too.

I saw satin pearl white in a M5 and it was breath taking. You have to see it in person to know what I am talking about. It makes it look very luxurious and very unique.

Satin Pear White looks nice. There's too many matte black and matte graphite on the streets you see it everyday.

Yeah too many matte black. I even saw a cheap truck once with some type of spray matte color and people like this pretty much killed that color option.

I have seen too many matte graphite and black. It looks like the paint just faded from far away.

The pearl white satin has a nice pearl color effect and it accentuates the beautiful lines of your car. It is a luxurious color and I am sure you will get many compliments.

Noo don't wrap an Estoril blue...that's committing a crime against humanity! I personally hate wrapped cars and think it's cheesy but if I were to say any color anything but matte, please omg.
