If you have a black car, matte black looks a little strange.
But if you have a theme you are going for, then a matte black grill will be better than a gloss black.
We have many sets in stock at only $50 shipped.

Yeah I agree with umnitza for me my car is jet black and I think the matte would look a little strange just because of the contrast that it creates. I went with the gloss had it paint matched.
