I know there was one person that went with gloss carbon. I think it was a yellow car.

 

Mine should be here in a week and it has gloss carbon. It was hell getting them to do it but they finally gave in, but they aren't going to do anymore. So I was curious of who all were able to get it before they stopped.

I went white on this one. I had a 15 white roadster and then went to a BLU Sid SV. I loved the white so I went back to it. But I was only going to do white with the gloss carbon. I think the gloss vs matte is going to make a big difference against the white.

Mine was the first Roadster to be made with the gloss carbon and the first SV (Roadster or Coupe) to have the naked carbon SV logo.

 

When I was at the factory to watch it being built in May, they had on the shelf all my gloss CF bits next to normal matte CF bits and there was no comparison. The gloss is out of this world good.

Oh wow! That looks amazing!

 

Did they say anything about having problems and not doing it for much longer? They did not want to do mine. It was off and on 3 times until I finally said to cancel my order. After seeing those pics I am glad I stayed the course.

Wow that looks mazing. I'd do it to if I were placing an order for the SV.

All the non-standard options were a battle, including the fact that I wanted the Branding Package but with the stereo delete option. Bottom line is, they can do anything, as long as you/your dealer makes enough noise about it.

I personally think both gloss and matte look great! IMO gloss looks classy, where matte looks aggressive.

loving that gloss CF SV logo!

Agreed. Also what color you choose has a lot to do with which will look better. I think the bright white would contrast against the matte...where gloss will shine along with it.

I've seen most of the combinations side by side now, gloss carbon with the matte black painted bits rather than the option gloss black bits looks the best imo, which is a suprise as i almost always prefer gloss paimt over matte

I will be having a full clear bra installed on the car so that will probably make the matte painted parts look gloss and help that.

Use matte film own the matte parts and gloss on the gloss if you want to keep them, thats what i did, bit more work for the fitter though

I'll get mine soon also and I went with

 

Glossy CF exterior

Glossy CF interior monocoque

Glossy all exterior black trim (front lip, rear lip, side mirrors, side rockers)

 

All that glossy to contrast my matte paint and Matte "SV"

 

I also did the glossy CF windshield frame with glossy CF Roof panels

 

Can't wait to see this bad ass mobile
