hey guys/girls... need advice/opinions...

So I have my car booked in with a friend of a friend's garage who does wrapping for next saturday and doing it for a good price (£80 all in ;) ), I'm having the roof, wing mirrors and back diffuser wrapped black.... here's the predicament....

I don't know whether to go for gloss or matte? my friend said gloss would look a bit tacky, but I think matte is hard to maintain and personally I don't like the feel of it etc... what do you guys think??

    That's a very good price to get that done. and i'm sure it will look great
