Default Hood stripe

I want to get a hood stripe like this one...

...but I can't decide whether to go with gloss black or matte black. On one hand I think the gloss would go with my gloss black accents on the wheels and on the other hand I think the matte black would go with my side stripes. Which one should I get?

My car for reference...

I'd go with the matte black also and match the side decals.

Awesome looking Mustang by the way!!!
