Default Sterling Grey 5.0 Black or Matte Black Stripes?
I've been considering getting black racing stripes on my car. Originally I was going to get the regular black stripes along with the Piano Black Forgestar CF5 wheels, but lately The matte black stripes have grown on me after seeing them on the SG mustangs in pictures. I'm very undecided now. Which would look better?

I had the same dilemma. I ended up going with matte black with silver metallic pin stripe.

It just looked better and was recommended from the shop that did the stripes.

The matte looks good but the gloss is usually easier to clean. I love the pinstripes though.

I think that either gloss black or matte black will look great.

I'm a fan of glossy finishes myself.
