If you're gonna do gloss black accents on your Z (as I have done on my G which is the same color as your Z) I vote that you do the headlights in gloss black as well.
I had CiNcity do my headlights in gloss black and Ryan just posted up pics yesterday. I'm happy with my choice.

Mm yeah I saw those. Turned out nice. I'd love to send them my lights and have the Audi mod done, but there's too many problems going on with them. If I can source the correct LEDs, I'd do it, but meh... not a BIG fan of them.
Also... for people that painted their headlights. Are the blinkers still as bright as they were? With the reflector being painted black, I want to know if it has decreased the blinkers output a lot.

Hmmm... Since those parts are so close to the headlight area, I definitely recommend that you stay consistent and do the headlights in gloss as well. I think it might look kinda weird to have matte black so close to the gloss black parts on the front of your Z, especially if you don't have matte black parts/accents anywhere else. My .

I vote satin or gloss.
Mine are satin.
And with the halo's turned on. They are white in person, picture makes it blue.
Here is stain up close when I had it apart. And the clear lens also. I left out the clear lens because it makes the top part of the housing lighter. I liked the more black out look.
I would also highly suggest that you install the replica sti lens while you have it open.
I took this with the left side sti lens, and right side stock while I had the outer lens off. The blue and purple is much more pronounced in person.

Go gloss to match your V2 kit or paint it all flat/satin black to match as it will look bad with your lights the only flat/satin.
Only suggest this cuss your stuck on black but I would go the color of the car personally.
But in the end I really think you should be the first to have the inside custom wrapped in CF, but on the other hand I am a solid CF *****!

IDK really lol. I like the look as it looks more classy to me. Kinda looks plain without it like corvette headlights. I just like it on but either way it's goign to look sick. Imma take some pics today of my gloss headlights. I'll post up some pics for you
