Gloss Black, Semi-Flat/Semi-Gloss Black, or Flat Black?

Will be getting a Nismo style diffuser soon. I can't decide what color to paint it (it's going on my DG)

1. Gloss Black





2. Semi-Flat/Semi-Gloss

(no pictures, sorry)

3. Flat Black






Keep in mind, (don't know if any of this matters or not, but...) I have HKS exhaust, no overlays on my tails, and no spoiler.

Also, that picture of the flat black diffuser isn't the best picture (no offense to the owner) but I doubt it does the flat black justice. The picture is very grainy, especially when compared to the other pics which are obviously from a photoshoot and much better. So please, don't let the quailty of the picture sway your opinion

Thanks in advance!

BTW, if anyone has any more pictures of either (gloss, semi, or flat) on a DG...please post pics! I have a bunch saved...but I didn't feel it necessary to repost them all But if you have a Nismo style diffuser on your DG then please post pics! I may not have found them all

Thanks!

Need to see pics of #2. From the pics you've shown, I'd go glossy. Flat doesn't look right, unless you're going for that racer boy look

it is mandatory that all Mark350Gt posts include a pic of his car

flat black = subtle mod
gloss black = "hey look at what I installed"

semi-gloss / semi-flat???

you're either gay or your not. i guess you could be bi...but than you really don't have an identity. what is it that u want?
