LCI Front Grill: Gloss vs Paint-Matched (iND)
I'm just now getting around to ordering my iND LCI front grill. Black Sapphire Metallic with the 601M wheels, and 35% tint all around. I already have the side grills paint-matched with light tint. I'm looking for any opinions on doing gloss black versus paint-matched for the surround trim. I'm sure both will look great. I'm leaning toward paint-matched. Thanks.

IMO its best to have the side gills and front grills uniform. So either do gloss black all around or paint matched all around.

Thanks for the reply. If my car was AW, like yours, I would most certainly go gloss. Mine is black, however, and I think matching the color of the car is perhaps even more OEM, in my case.
