Glossy as the matte can be a pain to keep looking good.

Match the existing side striping, including the fade.

If you're going to keep the side striping I agree to match that. Otherwise go flat.

I agree with above glossy if you are keeping the side stripes but if not go flat.

thanks guys,

I think the side stripes are actually semi flat, too. I think I'm leaning towards a semi gloss, just to make it easier to keep them looking good.
