This has also crossed my mind. As badass as i think it looks it does have a certain 'unfinished' look.
Ive pretty much decided to go gloss black again for just now but planning to flatten out all the chrome (see thread in Paint & Body) further down the line i may mess with maybe a different color matte (i freakin' love F-bomb olive drab btw)
