Matt look lots better but are buggers to keep clean, any dead fles just make a grease spot and can be hard to remove.


What has it getting stretched got to do with it? https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/finglonga/Finglonga%20Inc/ne_nau.gif

I got a Shoei Raid II in Matt Black. Looks great.

I am worried about it getting scratched but no more than I would be if it was gloss.

My matt one was a lot harder to scratch than my gloss one. Didn't get stone chips either.
