Yes.. On the back of my can of Gloss Duplicolor black, it says T100 - Universal Black. The way you can differentiate gloss from matte is the cap of the gloss is "shiny" where as the cap for the matte is a "flat black" w/ no shine to it.. Sorry if I caused confusion.

Debating whether to get it paint matched or go with another grill

Totally depends on what color you're painting the emblem vs. grill... My boy drone didn't paint his but I think he's going to

Ummmm, Infiniti says that the grill is black chrome from the factory. At least that is what it says on my 06 6mt coupe window sticker, black chrome front grill.
