Matte or Gloss Black Out Emblems

[Metal]

I'm going to Replace all my chrome emblems on my 2015 "Black Exterior" Mustang GT...

Indecisive about Matte or Gloss Emblems...

Please share pics if you have them... especially if they are black on black...LOL...

I didn't think about it matching my PP wheels, good point..

I went with the matte black on my car just for the contrast. Ultimately, I will probably do some custom dark charcoal gray emblems so they will stand out a little more.

I flip flopped between gloss and matte myself. Ended up going gloss black all the way around. Don't regret it for a second. I like how it blends with the rear panel, it's the exact same value of black. On the front grill I like how it pops against the matte grill.
And I agree about matching PP wheels. That said if I had matte wheels, I would have gone matte emblems.

I went gloss also. Very happy with it. I've seen a black car with gloss black emblems as well and thought it looked great.

Any more photos anyone can share?
I have been looking into this, since one cannot purchase a 2018 Mustang GT PP1 Premium, with the Blackedout Package.

Currently thinking about the gloss option. Initially, I was thinking matte black. But, with my car so shinny - LOL gloss might be the way to go...

I like the chrome pony on the rear of my '19 EcoBoost™ and will likely leave it alone; however, since making the switch from emblazoned 5.0 fender emblems to a slick-surfaced non-V8 quarter panel, I've been feeling a little emasculated.

I have obtained several "EB" fender-size emblems in chrome and shiny black. With the addition of rattle-can paints, my options are limited only by inspiration. My arc is toward a scheme of orange on the Magnetic Metallic car, a combination I've admired on several (mostly racing) cars in the past. There is also the different-on-each-side possibility, and the more-than-one-to-a-side idea.

Rattle-cans currently in stock are flat/satin black and fluorescent orange, and flat clear-coat.

What do y'all think?

I'll also need location measurements for the 5.0 emblems so I can fit the EBs in the right places.

I went with matte as all the other black parts on the car are satin/matte or plastic except for the deck lid panel and tail light surrounds

@Dsquared & @Rdot9 where did you purchase the GT emblem from? I’m having a difficult time finding it

 

[Mustangfreek]

I put gloss black emblems in my black car with black wheels etc..
looks good and matte wouldnt make much difference..lol

@pntdj id like to find a black GT emblem also..lol..That big ugly chrome emblem and red tails are leaving next

Edit, quick google led me to a few pls es right off the bat for black rear emblems

Mak performance
Lethal
Ebay (has Oem ones and $20 repops)

I have all gloss as part of the black accent package, if I had a choice I’d prolly do like a satin. Matte gets damaged/marked up so easily it would drive me nuts…
