Default matte black

any thoughts on having my 03 ram painted that like dull matte black, its got its wear and tear scratches and dents and so my friends uncle said he would bondo them out and do the matte black for 300$ and im thinking about doing it, but i dont really want to have it done and then hate it and i cant find any pictures of anyone else that did it so its becommign a hard choice

yeah im probably gunna end up doing that then, you think it would be worth buying the plastic front and back bumper and selling my chrome ones on ebay or just painting over them, i like them but i dont think matte black and chrome bumpers will look as nice

if you have dents get them fixed the right way.... bondo is junk..And $300 seems pretty cheap for a paint job, you usually get what you pay for.
