up to you really, it's your car, do what you think looks best. if you have some things on your car that a polished, go with the polished one, if you have (flat) black things on your car, go with that

If it's completely out of sight like on that teg above, then do flat black, and you can have fun w/unsuspecting people. If it's still in clear view and just easy to spot even if it's black flat, then it kind of just looks more ghetto and polished looks really clean and pops out nicely.

I hate when people call a hatchback a bubble.

Anyways, spray it flat black.
