CETA Panel. Which black?

I've got my wheels being painted right now, and im going back to get the bumper painted like the CE T/A. My question to you, is which style of black should I go with? Flat? Satin? or Gloss?

I think gloss may be the way, since my wheels will be gloss black, and the taillights are going to get the nightshade treatment.

What do you guys think?

Yes I do! These are the most recent, I need a better camera tho! One of the cameras I used today.....a lot of the pictures came out all funky when I uploaded them to my computer, the other caught the glare of the sun way to much, so here are the only good ones I got today!

Well, I went with a satin for now since it was cheap, and it looks great. I'm going to hold off on the gloss black for when I repaint the entire car.

Thanks for the help guys. I'll post up pix when I get the wheels and hash marks on.

So should the bumper section match the roof section or will it look odd if the bumper is flat and the roof is gloss black?
