I thought I had saved pics to show you, that I got from TGO, but I can't find them.

A would show you that this same question has been asked several times before. But the correct spelling for the word is "matte", to help your searches.

Matte black it typically primered. Satin, it what you're probably thinking. That's pretty bad ****! Primered is kinda ghetto.

IMO flat black cars are like redheads....they're either drop dead gorgeous or butt ugly. There is no happy medium, in between, or kinda sorta.
