Looking for opinions

Hey all, I will be painting my 82 Z28 arctic white very soon. I am looking for opinions on the headlight pockets, the grill and the rims. I want the headlights and grill black but I dont know if I should go gloss or semi gloss. Also the interior is tan and I am wondering what color would look best for my GTA crosslace rims. So I need advice on:
1. Gloss or Semi gloss black
2. What color for rims.

I agree, White car with black wheels looks sweet! I think that semi gloss would look better in the pockets and grill. Just my opinion.

Re: Looking for opinions

If it were me I would go semi gloss on the headlights. Either way with the rims looks cool IMO.
