A lot of people on this site have no idea the difference between semi gloss or flat so your poll isnt going to be acurate. The original Berger panels as well as the rear tail light black out treatment on the first gen BB Camaros were approx. 60% gloss. The Krylon Semi gloss is about as close as you can get with a rattle can. If you like the primered look go with flat, if you like the clean low gloss look go with the Semi gloss.

my car is red, black gloss slp grill and gloss berger panel. looks good. I think it really depends on the color of your car though. If my car was white I would go with flat black...

Semi gloss looks best to me.

I did mine with a dupont gloss and a clear, came out great, I did not cut any corners with it, hours and hours of prep, in a booth with HVLP guns. I would do it in gloss again in a heartbeat, as I think that flat and semi look cheap, like you just ordered a new peice and didnt bother to get it painted

Berger Panel I know the owner of #71 2002 berger camaro and his rear panel is unpainted black. I asked him if he knew if it was flat or semi and he told me neither... that it was left unpainted.
