I want to spray my front badge black, but I dont want a gloss finish. I would like a matt finish to match the grill. How would I do this?I know you can buy matt paint but what about lacquer? Help would be great

Yes you can buy Matt paint and lacquer wise just very fine.
Altough a better option is what someone, has already done and used matt vinyl (it doesnt stonechip) and you dont get any drips or runs...

I have tried the vinyl and cant get it crease free, think I might try it again this time using a hair dryer to warm the vinyl up while doin it. Then if that fails paint it. Cheers josh
