ArcherAve Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Got a 2013 SEL with the appearance package. Love it!!! Seriously considering painting the body matte black. Thoughts? Yes/No??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmcclure Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 I like it... Thanks for the photos! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpio Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Looks good, congrats on the new ride! Re the whole matte exterior thing, it's been a fad for a few years and is just overplayed by now IMO, I'd pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re the whole matte exterior thing, it's been a fad for a few years and is just overplayed by now IMO, I'd pass. I hear what you're saying, thanks for the input. It's pretty rare where I am. Don't see it very often. One thing I am going to do is get black emblem overlays, and remove the "EDGE" and "SEL" badges, for a more clean look.

timf Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 The SEL Appearance Package looks slick. I wish they offered something like that with the Limited options as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingo Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 If you're insistent on matte black, use Scotchprint 1080 film to do it instead of a total repaint on a brand new car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgieguy Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Buy the Sport front lower valance and have it painted blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1duFos Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Congrats on your Edge, don't like the wheels, I am more of a chrome guy, your wheels draws me away from the total look of the car, but thats just me, as for the matte black, the Edge is not a resto rod, custom hot rod, rat rod etc. that you might see a vintage car shows, Barrette Jackson.... would not add any appeal to the over all look.

Geek-A-Leek Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Matte Black the grille :shades: BTW, good choice on the appearance package, those wheels are HOT! almost defeats the purpose of the appearance package if he did that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravishingrocket Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Why does the stereo/hvac controls look different than other pics ive seen? Also, the instrument cluster looks like the one from the sport trim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeDevil79 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Keep it as it is in my opinion, you got a fairly unique color and spec, don't ruin it with paint or vinyl (at least not yet!) As said above, the app pack has body color grille for a reason, to change it defeats the point Make it your own with other mods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
