Painting 214's need help on color
I have an 2010 X5d with 214's, wide fenders, and all black front end. I want to have my 214's painted black but I can not decide what finish I keep going back and forth so I need your advice please. The options are:

Gloss
Matte/Satin
Textured

This picture is an example of textured on the left and matte/satin on the right:

I like the textured look. It would match the black plastic fender flares.

the textured look will hide the dirt/dust overall. however, i think the matte/satin will look better.
