I've seen the gloss black grill. what does everyone think of matte black? seems like matte black might match the lower grills better. opinions? thanks.

What color is your car?

I personally would think that gloss or semi-gloss would be the best choices.

my car is white. i agree...i think i've decided to go with gloss black. the matte black reminds me of an accord.

i've never really like body color matched grills.

i think that if you have a black car then you should go with matte to give it contrast, but if you have any other color car, you should do gloss on the grill

I have the gloss black on my black-painted G and it looks great. No comment as to other body colors.
