Default CETA bumper/Suggestions

I'm doing my bumper CETA style. My car is Maple Red Metallic with black accents ("Trans Am" door badges, liscense plate bird). Any suggestions on the color I should use? I'm leaning toward flat black.

GLoss Black!! You wont regret it..

I had flat black for a while but the tailights outshine it and make it look gray almost. maybe a semi gloss but I say go gloss all the way.

Gloss black goes best with the taillights. Semi-gloss or satin at the very least. Flat looks wrong with the taillights IMO.
