    I was toying with the idea of painting the top part of my GT black, but I'm trying to figure out to go gloss or satin black.

    I would strile the line above the door handles, the mirror housing would be black too.

    Any opinions?

    Black in general is hard to keep clean, that's for sure.

    matte black is a hundred thousand times worse than gloss black. my bike is matte black, it ALWAYS has fingerprints and water spots on it.

    Gloss! Should look uniquely sweet!

    Consider silver, gray, or a champagne color over the choice of black with the lighter shade on the lower half of the car. Like mentioned, photoshop this before you even search for a paint shop.

    These are different colors, but sweet two tone nonetheless...

    That paint job could be better.

    If I were u. I would just have the roof painted. Do it gloss black!

    That looks great but the idea is I want to keep the factory paint on the bottom half of the car. Reason being, I don't want to paint door jambs and most importantly, I have some hail damage in the couple spots on top that I'm fixing.

    Satin black is definitely out at this point. I did consider a dark charcoal grey/silver on top as well instead of black but I think the black would looks better with the maroon.
