What you will get

Your car photo in the new colour and finish you named, with the original reflections, shadows, chrome, windows, badges and wheels kept, and no colour spilling onto the road or other objects.

Common mistake

The windows or chrome trim pick up the new colour.

Fix: List them, such as “black windows, chrome door handles and grille stay unchanged”.

Also watch for

A matte finish still looks glossy. Describe the surface, “soft diffused reflections, no sharp highlights, like satin paint”. Check reflections on the bonnet.
The shade is different from the real wrap or paint. Treat the picture as a rough preview. Ask your installer for a physical sample and view it outside, because screen colours vary.

Try a variation: compare three finishes

Ask for “the same car in gloss, matte and metallic, side by side in one image”. It is quicker than three separate runs, and the tip’s comparison is easier to judge.

Still not right? Reply with this

Keep every reflection, shadow and wheel the same. Make the colour a shade darker and show it as satin, not gloss.
