Blacked out headlights

Just have a few questions, for people who have seen a few different ones in person what appears better looking,1) gloss or flat black, and 2) who is the best on evom that does them ams or evodave (for those who have seen both in person, or have had bad experiances with a particular one). This is not geared to start tension between anyone currently doing this mod, its just me wanting customer feedback to decide who I will go with (not trying to sway anyone elses choice), feel free to PM if you dont want to post anything negative.. (By the way sorry if this is in the wrong section, wasnt sure if it was supposed to go in here or show and shine)

AMS does a great job, but I don't like the gloss level of the paint they use. I did mine myself with Satin Black Krylon.

Yeah, i used a flat black and it matched the paint color of my car perfectly !!!! it looks f-ing sick !!!! If your ever around AMS, go up there and look at the quality of the lights, or you can go to the thread about it..... they have a pic of my car up there and it really looks good !!!!!

FYI... if you want absolutely NO shine, use flat black.
