    Default Sticker problem...

    I find out that the sign shop I'm using for my side strip doesn't have a size big enough to do my decal in matte black. SO now I'm trying to decide if I should just go gloss black.

    Think gloss black will look ok/good on gloss paint or will the matte look better?

    Thanks. Later, QD.

    Gloss would look more OEM.


    However I think matte would "suit" the car better. Either they buy a bigger roll of matte black (unlikely for such a small order) or find another shop. Sign Shops are a dime a dozen.

    Do a matte, than clearcoat = My approval, which as we all know is the most important aspect.

    Don't want to do that solely because that will up the price by a bit. Later, QD.

    I did find out that the sticker is indeed, gloss, from the factory so it all works out. They will be put on tomorrow. Later, QD.
