If you could make the whole thing matte black, remove the front license plate, and put flat black covers on the headlights you would be invisible to LIDAR down to maybe ~500ft depending on the gun. Brings to mind an image of some Lochkeed Skunk Works engineer drivng 130 in a funny looking car with a big grin on his face.

intresting, that would make for a good argument on why to paint your car matte black.
