what "sheen" are the black bezels, strips and letters on the 69-70 grill?

I have seen a lot of pictures of the grills but its really hard to determine if the color is flat, semi gloss, or gloss. I'm on the fence about powder coating the bezels or having them spray painted with a factory correct black. Thanks to everyone in advance!

I had mine powder coated by TXFirefighter. Unless one os doing a 100pt truck I like the look of the powder coated bezels.

It looks like a satin black to me, for sure not shiny.

I guess a good combination would be a powder coated satin black! Thanks for the replies.
