Default Front plate filler question

Hey guys, I wanna replace my front licence plate holder with one of the filler panels. I dont know which one I should get, the flat black or glossy. I have 2.0T so its gonna be the flat black grill. I think the glossy looks a little better, but would it look out of place against the flat black grill? Any thoughts?
Thanks guys.

I think either would look fine. I don't think the gloss would clash with the matte of the grill.

Default What color is your car?

If it's black, then I'd go with the glossy black filler to match with the paint.

Otherwise go with the other filler, in my opinion.

I think 2.0 grille is actually more charcoal color than black. The black panel will look goofy imo.

Default i like the gloss better but

i'm trying to picture it on your car, with a matte grill the only way it won't look bad is if it compliments your paint. what you don't want is gray paint and a matte black grill (looks like dark gray) and then BAM a shiny black filler. you won't regret that matte one but you might regret the glossy one.
