Need your opinions please!

So just ordered the following goodies from Nate for my monte carlo blue M5

1) Lci Gloss black grill
2) Gloss black side vents
3) RKP splitter

My dilemma is now what to do with the colour of the wheels...So I'm definitely going dark but IM really not sure whether to go for gloss black or satin black hence I'm putting this out there to you guys to see what you think...

If I go with the gloss black, my car will pretty much ended up looking like the car in the link below which I really like

What do you think?

Satin gets my vote. Gloss reflects so much light they wind up being hard to see, which to me doesn't look good. Satin works great if you're going for the stealth/sinister look.
