matte black hood

Or wrap it
I talked to a local shop about doing it on my Swinger, they said not a problem, but he wasnt sure about the longevity of the cowl area because of the thinness of the grates, not a big area to stick to. So if you dont have a cowl to worry about its a fairly cheap and easy way to get the satin black.
Im going with paint, I dont want to take the chance of it peeling off at the cowl area.
