Black interior trim.

Hi guys, I'm doing the black metal interior trim that runs over the A pillar / B pillar / top rear curved glass / inside top of door around window frame etc for a Capri black GT interior. Is the black colour, Gloss / Satin / Matt? Wanted to be sure before I paint it. 
 Thanking You PSR

    Gloss is best for looks and cleaning, but if you want less gloss, go satin. Matt is harder to keep clean and within a year or 2, you'd swear it was "flat" and untidy looking............much like my Capri!

    My rear ones are satin so guessing that's standard, but gloss would look good!
    On a side note I'm missing both side interior metal trims for A pillars, if anyone has some spare?
    Cheers

    Satin.  However my 3000E is wrinkle finish from the factory.  The MK2 Ghia were vinyl (fabric not plastic skin) wrapped and fit on MK1-same with the carpet scuff plates
