nomad Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 (edited) For comparison, Here is a satin S2000http://ll.speedhunters.com/u/f/eagames/NFS/speedhunters.com/Images/Mike%20Garrett/1November/SEMA/three5.jpg (I like gloss better) Edited March 25, 2012 by nomad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natallica Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 I agree with Nomad...Gloss is the way to go IMO.Satin looks like old faded paint to me, like something out of a Maguire's commercial. -N8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psu_Crash Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 My vote goes for gloss too. The satin just looks like you haven't waxed it in 20 years imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdScrip Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 i was thinking something more like this http://i640.photobucket.com/albums/uu127/hoskinsr/t_bugatti_blue.jpg I think it only looks cool because of the car. Betcha it would look even better all gloss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
