Hood Wrap

Hi, what would be the best color to wrap my hood? Satin or matte black?
I have the nightfall grey metallic . Should I do mirrors and spoiler as well?

Do a search here - there are a couple of extensive threads on this topic that list the best color matches for each product. If you want all the blacks to match, wrap everything, but keep in mind that the wraps are less protective than paint and will show every rock chip and mark. The best alternative is to wrap or paint the hood and then cover everything that’s black with a paint protection film like Xpel Stealth; then you’ll have a color match and the same satin finish on everything.

Satin always looks better and maintains better as well. IMO satin black would be better than matte for a hood.
