T-Top edge color

Getting the car back Friday or Saturday from paint. The black paint on the metal part of the T-top (the wide part attached to the glass) is all worn off and faded. They wanted $75 to paint them, but I know I can do it myself. My question is, what gloss is factory? Gloss, semi gloss or flat? Thanks

I believe its semi-gloss. But then again, i don't really remember these cars when they were brand new per say. Rather, I didn't pay attention to that little bit.

I have a C&C top car and its a semi-gloss black.
