Splitter and Side Skirt color advice

Sometime next week I have a 2023 vivid orange metallic Camaro 2SS with black metallic rally stripes and the satin black accent package (mirrors and spoiler) being built.

I'll be getting a splitter and side skirts as one of my first purchases. I'm trying to decide between gloss black which would go with the stripes and the front grill, or the 1LE (more matte finish) which would look better with the mirrors and spoiler.

What do all of you think?

Since you have both metallic and satin already on the can, I don't think you can go wrong with either, especially since the splitter and rockers are down low to the ground.

Another though is matte/satin inspires a race car look, where metallic has a dressier appearance IMO

Will it have a gloss or matte rear diffuser? I would match that finish. Just my 2¢.

For right now it'll have the stock diffuser which I think is a duller gray. I'll pick one a diffuser next

I'd say matte would match the car better from most angles, but you can't go wrong either way.

I want to purchase side skirts satin black (or close to it) for My SS 1LE, but what are some purchase options that don't cost $1500?

ACS ones are $750. I have them and they look good but honestly they should be more like $500 max. They are the only ones to match the 1LE color

Satin black. ACS makes them in 1LE black as well as matching rock guards. I have both on my car.
