    Please excuse my ignorance, but are all matte blacks the same finish? I’m planning on purchasing an aftermarket grill that has a matte black finish, and I’d like for my hood bludge to match, so I will be vinyl wrapping my current chrome buldge, with a matte black finish and I just want to make sure they will match once finished? Any advice or suggestions are welcomed. TIA!

    no, all matte blacks are not the same. When I got my hood buldge and surround on my Quicksand wrapped the vendor had about a dozen different matte blacks from different companies to chose from, ​

    Lovely...so maybe order the grill first, then take it to a shop for them to tell me which I need? I’m planning on wrapping it myself. Thanks!

    Wait until you get the grill, take it to your vinyl wrap guy, and have him match it.
