hello again, i have an everyday vn exec 3.8 sedan, the paint has never been in very good cond, and its not a nice colour anyways and to top it off i have had to get a new boot lid of a different colour after a run in with a pole!! so after all this i thought painting the car matt black would be cool, as i have seen another vn matt blackk and it looked good.
so how do you do it?

missus (in more ways than one)
like a rat rod yeah???
if you wanna do it on the cheap, get a shitload of sandpaper, a **** load of pressure pak black primer, and a **** load of matt black paint, sand the whole car back as much aws possible, paint the whole thing in matt black primer and sand that using fine sandpaper, then hit it with matt black can,
or get it done at a paint shop, buy the paint and prep the car your self, oh and in that case, provide hifill to the painters

My Brother painted his XY GS 302 (with top loader) falcon matt back (had chrome 12 slotter wheels) with spray cans, it was the most evil car you could ever see

The only problem will b the amount of people asking you when your getting your car painted as matt black is an undercoat designed to help painters find dents in the body.
