Default Has anyone painted their truck with a matte finish?

I have seen cars painted with a matte black or a matte gray finish but I don't think I've seen any LSx trucks painted this way.

Thanks for the info. I'll take a look at it.

On a side note, I am not really sure I like vehicles that are completely matte. However, I do like it when they mix the themes and combine gloss with matte accents (or whatever you want to call them). What do you guys think?
