Matte or Glossy?

What up guys and gals.

I am getting my Le Mans Hash Stripes put on my new ride but am deciding between Glossy or Matte. One is more expensive than the other. What is going to look better on my Aqua Blue? Is there anything I need to consider? Will the gloss dull over time?

Any thoughts or experience with this decision would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot.

Matte...... glossy will just blend in its better to have a little contrast

It's all personal preference. Me, I'd go glossy just because the color should be enough contrast but again, google search images and check what both look like.

White or Silver stripes would look sharp. I saw a beastie up here with ABM and White factory stripes. Hot.

glossy will look more painted... matte will give contrast...
