Gloss black or Flat Black??? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So I had an idea to get another Berger panel and paint it flat black. But never thought it would look good until I saw it on a buddy of mines car. I just plastipped it for now, but will eventually have it professionally painted. What do you all think?

Gloss Black:

Flat Black:

If I keep the flat black, I will buy stainless inserts or put my other ones in. But I am going to keep it debadged

Well a buddy of mine is trying to get a deal at a body shop for satin so I'm going to have it painted since its a spare. If I don't like it I'll sell it. I was thinking maybe doing it a metallic gray and having my hood scoop painted the same color. Thought that would look badass.

Gloss black I think will look best.

On a black car, the flat looks like you bought a panel from the junkyard and are too cheap to paint it.
