Default Help me decide! Requesting vinyl deck lid pictures

Hey guys!
I'm a recent purchaser of an azure blue mach, and am hoping on buying deck lid vinyl for it. I was looking at this picture as a reference (I just ordered smoked taillight trim and steel bumper inserts from AM), as I like the colors used, but I don't so much dig how the honeycomb isn't flush with the lights. Hence the vinyl. The only site I found selling deck lid vinyls was stangmods, which comes in two finishes: matte, and gloss. But I'm indecisive on which to get--the gloss looks to dark, while the matte just strange, which may be due to what seems like a poor picture. If any one has recommendations, pictures, and any other advice, it would be greatly appreciate

Thanks!

Default Matte Black FTW

I chose to stay with Matte Black for all of my stripes since that is what all of the factory vinyls are. I like the honeycomb panel better, though.

Ugh, I guess the honeycomb does look pretty nice, but it's a bit too pricey for me ($200 vs $50). I think you've made up my mind about the matte--it looks good. If you don't mind me asking, where did you find the vinyl for the lower valence? I can't seem to find a shop that carries it.

Thanks for your help. Those headlights look sick

Thanks! I got my lower valence blackouts at http://www.graphic-express.com/
You will need the Rear Vent Lower Accent and Rear Vent Upper Accent. Depending on what stripe you order, you may have to pay the "custom color" price for matte black.

I think it looks better with both upper and lower than just with the lower piece (like most people do). The only problem is that the small vertical slats don't get covered, but I think it still looks good.

The headlights are smoked clear-corners (the amber turn color has been eliminated from the housing). I think I got them on eBay. They really dim your headlights, though (even with pure white HIDs). My foglights aren't smoked and are what really lights up the road for me (they are pure white HIDs, too).
