are you just doing trim or everything? if you are painting everything i would do a flat black for the main parts, then paint all of the trim with a glossy black, it will make the trim stand out nicely. if you are just painting the trim, i would go with glossy

Im really digging this stuff. I want to try it out bad. Durable product with a satin/flat look.

could easily make trim look like brushed aluminum.

I'm going black to match the car, and silver to match the stripes(trim).

Well I got hooked up, since I already had commercial spraying equipt, I purchased a good deal of interior stuff, I may offer to do some things for members or something, this stuff is pretty good. I can color a 99 or lower (grey) interior black to match 2002+ without someone purchasing 00+ interior pics, for cheap too, or color match it to the car, I can also color leather, and carpets, headliners, dash boards, etc, I'm still playing around with this stuff, I'll post some pics of my car soon.
