Primer gray would look cool, I think, but the wheel would look out of place (front).

ma mate said he wanted that but biek frames are too small so the paint wont flip so much.. well the garage paint place told him that...

I had purple/gold shift and the flip was very clear and that using the stuff from a spray can. Real stuff would work just fine.

Flip paint is pretty sick too, but if it's a "working man's" BMX, it's going to get trashed, and it easier to spray a little primer over the dings than redo a flake or flip paintjob...

Matte grey should be great.

I'm pretty sure you can get satin finish varnish... which is matte.
