Nop, the're not the matte stripes..
Factory vinyl, probably made by my people at Avery Dennison, NOT 3m)
As for the shine, I use the VRT to clean, and go over them with whatever I'm using on the adjoining paint.

In this case, thge Hybrid Black light.
Also the QUALITY OF SUNLIGHT WE RECEIVE here in Ohio probably adds to the appearance.
