Thinking about doing the same thing, I sold my black H3 but am getting a black H3T, after the H3T purchase Im thinkin real hard about doing it in a satin black finish. I have already been looking around for the paint. Gota be carefull though to get the right paint asI dontwant it to look like the truck is in primer.
Anyhow, sorry, no picts of a flat black H3 but I am thinking about doing it as well.

Cheers
Davyo

Haven't seen that yet. i agree that I don't think you would want the primer look.

I love that look. Dont have any pics of the H3, but here are some pics of a flat black tahoe.

I have heard to get a good matte black paint job is really hard. Some Honda motorcycles had this color from the factory . . . looks sinister when it is done correctly.

I don't know, I wouldn't want to see what the paint job would look like after a day of wheeling, to me the paint would scratch a lot easier or would be more apparent.
