Flat Black vs. Gloss Black?

I have a white coupe with gloss black rims with a chrome lip, should the grille be gloss black or flat black? Im thinkin gloss makes more sense to go with the rims and tint

Do you have painted headlights?

I vote satin, it's the middle of the road and looks wicked. You can always refinish if it doesn't work for you.

Then yea, satin. Since nothing else is black on the front end just do it satin. When I had gloss black wheels it suited it nicely.

Yea dipping plastic in to burning hot metal is a great idea.

I gotta give SOD credit...That guy has managed to make himself an overnight sensation on this forum. And you always know that when his name appears you just can't help but laugh. I personally welcome him to the boards...THANK YOU SOD and please don't stop posting. I love the entertainment. SOD on a more serious note. If you are gonna go full donk and put those 22s on there... Buy a billet grille too. Once you do that I can guarantee those pictures will be in high demand! I wanna see it already!

So not to hijack the thread with more SOD comments. Go satin. I'm thinking of doing the same.
