Matte Metallic Yellow vs Matte Pearl Metal Black

Wrap comparison · updated Aug 2026

Matte Pearl Metal Black (#17181A) reads darker than Matte Metallic Yellow (#F1AC10), so it holds shadow in the body lines where Matte Metallic Yellow lifts them. Both films carry a metallic finish, so the choice is purely the colour. Body shape, paint condition and the light you shoot in move both colours further than a swatch chip suggests. Seeing them on your own car settles it, free, in a couple of minutes.

Matte Metallic Yellow vs Matte Pearl Metal Black: the differences.

The first difference between Matte Metallic Yellow and Matte Pearl Metal Black is depth: Matte Pearl Metal Black reads darker, so it hides body lines that Matte Metallic Yellow shows. The second is not the finish: both are metallic films, so the sheen is a separate decision from the colour. Low light, curved panels and your own trim decide the rest, and none of that shows up on a swatch. Render both on your car and compare them there.

Side by side

Matte Metallic Yellow is a wrap in the Specced catalogue, swatched at #F1AC10. It renders with a metallic finish — the sheen belongs to the film itself, so there is no separate finish to pick. Body shape, paint condition and the light you photograph in all change how it lands, so the only honest preview of Matte Metallic Yellow is one made from a photo of your own car.
