Default Gloss Or Flat Black

Installed the Roush lower bumper vinyl and some vinyls that go over the exhaust. The bumper is flat black and the exhaust is gloss. Don't know if I should get a gloss lower bumper vinyl or flat black exhaust vinyls?

I also have the Mach 1 chin spoiler which is flat black anyways, so I figured I should just do flat black all around.

go with flat black all around; it'll look odd if you have a mix of flat and gloss blacks on the car.

I agree w/ the flat black. I just ended up w/ the gloss black exhaust vinyls. I'll get flat black ones. I think the gloss takes away too much from the lower bumper.

Reaper, your lower bumper and the rear deck, is that vinyl or painted?

I should probably sand the pony down on the front and paint that flat black as well. It would be the only thing left that isn't flat black once I'm done. I painted it gloss black about 2 months ago.
