I like matte better, but most would probably like gloss better.

The only difference is that mine have round corners on the front outer side and on the rear of the hood they go wider with the hood shape!!!

Re: Finally I decided how to make my stripes!!

Hey man, great job with your car. I love the black stripes on that blue....don't really see it that often, but it looks great!

I would definitely say black-out the pockets I did it to mine about 4 years ago and will never go back. I did mine in high-gloss. The factory uses the flat-black so I thoght it was cool to make it a little different. I also like the way the headlights/lights reflect off the paint (especially at night!) looks awesome!

Keep up the good work, and let us know what you decide!
