Depends on what other accents you have on your car imo

if it's going to match something else up front then I say it could look good, but if it's going to be the only thing matte black then it will probably look a bit goofy

When I bought my eyelids i was under the impression that they extend the look of the hood over my headlights. So I paint matched mine and it looks sick! So i would recommend matching it to your hood color.

well since your coupe is dark slate id say paint it to match dark slate..becuase the mat black against the dark slate will look like u tryed to match or something but was off by a little
