either. depends if you prefer it to stick out a bt more or blend in.

if you want it to blend go matt if you want it to stand out go gloss

could even go with satin which is in the middle just to make things more difficult lol

I used satin as it matched the bottom one

I used matt, it looked ok, matt is easier to apply imo, it doesnt run as easy

Its your car do what you want? Do it one of the above if you dont like it do it the other. Not exactly expensive.

as said previously, satin matches the bottom. that's what i did mine with...looks pretty good

or could do what im doing which is easier and by a black one for £25 then not need to repaint your grill all the while due to stonechips

or u cud buy the paint for £2 and then not have to buy a new grille lol
