glossy black grilles or matte black grilles on mineral grey

what do you guys think? and would anyone have pictures to compare the two. i am quite torn because while i do like the glossy look of the bmw performance grilles, i plan on getting the m sport lip/splitter and i also think it would look good if the grilles matched the matte black of the lip.

I did matte black on mine and love the look. I will post pics when I get a chance, but there are a lot of pics of both around

I went glossy black, changed whisker to glossy black, and the bumper lights to match paint color.
