DIY black grill: gloss or matte
I'm planning on making my grill black myself. I know OEM is gloss black, but what does everyone think about matte black? Would it go with the bottom grills better? Opinions? Thanks.

Matte black? Hmmm...I don't think anyone has ever done that.













*sarcasm.

depends on the color of your car and any aesthetic mods you have. matte black may be very popular on internet land but bet its not in the area you live

Semi-gloss(Satin) black is another good choice.

I painted mine with flat, it didn't look right at all. Ended up redoing it with semi-gloss.

I think i've decided on gloss black. matte black reminds me of an altima or accord.
