Alpine white matt or gloss spoiler opinion

On a 2014 alpine white F10 M Sport which has side skirt sills (M Performance) what would everyones opinion be:

1. Spoiler to be coated with matt black or gloss black.
2. Side fender (Indicator surrounding - although on the 2014 model there is no indicators its just a chrome finish applied) again matt or gloss black?

I'm in two minds and not sure which I should go for.... or if there is a trend to follow?
