Unhappy Stripe Color Help!

Hey Ive got a 2001 V6 Mustang in Laser Red. I want a single stripe (Super Snake Style) for my car and I want it to be black. The question is, would gloss black look better or matte black? Im stuck, i love matte, but gloss seems pretty solid. They're from AmericanMuscle.com so the gloss black is $45 dollars less. Tough decision, any help?

Thanks

Try putting gloss and matte black up by your car to start with. Do you have other gloss or matte black on car? Wheel color etc.. Good luck

I have nothing else installed. I plan on getting tail light tint and insert letters, which could be matte black or gloss black depending on the stripe. But thanks, I'll try your advice and see which one is better

How's it going on your strip? I've even thought of putting a matte black one on my black GT. But I like it simple so haven't decided on mine yet.
When you decide post pics for sure. Good luck.
