Default CETA mod?? yay or nay??

Thinking of doing the ceta to my car. Would it look better if I did, or leave it as it is? If ya think I should, should i do it flat, semi-gloss, or gloss?? thanks for the input.

Do not pass GO. Do not collect $200. Go directly to the paint booth and get the CETA mod.

For your car, a gloss CETA would match the black wing very well.
