Body color or black tail light panel?

Since painting the car DSG, Im thinking maybe the black tail light panel doesnt look as good as it did when the car was silver. Would it look better with it just painted body color? If I do keep it black, should I go gloss, semi or flat? If I keep it, it needs to be repainted cuz when the car got buffed, some of the rubbing compound got on it and will not come off.

Semi Gloss fool!

It will look much better once we get everything done and have the nice stainless magnaflow tips on it.

Everyone is saying gloss.. But on your color of car I think gloss would stand out TOO much and look dumb.. Semi-gloss with some chrome fill ins will look amazing!

IMO it looks AMAZING.. And I have actually thought about doing mine in semi-glosss but then my tail lights would stand out since they are blacked out..
