The color or style is really a personal preference. If you like the gloss black, get it. If you like the flat black better, get that. I went a completely different route and painted mine satin metallic black. Not too matte and not glossy. I may decide to go over it again with clear to make it really pop, but I like the way it turned out overall. Good luck with your choice.

Also, be careful on ebay, because most of the grills they sell on ebay protrude out compared to the OEM ones where it sits flush.
Your best bet to get grills is from Trinity Autosports.
