Well I like white cars, specially with black windows but I'm still open for other options for now though I'm going to primer it the white and black that I (so far) like the most. Second would be blacked out in flat black

Are you going to paint it yourself or have it done? I haven't seen too many do it yourself attempts at gloss paint jobs come out too well. So if you are doing it yourself I would vote for matte black.

Well I'm going to try it my self and well if it doesn't look like a professional paint job. I'll have a pro spray it. I thought a gloss finish was easiest to paint. If you mess up with gloss paint you can sand it and spray more clear to fix it. Anytime you mess up on a matte black finish the entire part must be sprayed again plus I was told that it takes two skilled people to spray a matte finish the right way

I am not 100% postitive on what I said. if anyone knows a bit more on this topic enlighten us.
