    By "eyebrows" do you mean the whole bucket, or just the little piece that sits outside the bucket (along the fender kinda)?

    Three silver cars posted pictures on LS1Tech with glossy buckets, they looked great to me.

    I think the gloss looks much better. When I had my car repainted I did them and the grill gloss. It flows well with the gloss roof and side mirrors and dark window tint. (Gloss berger coming soon). The factory satin buckets and grill looked too random! Lame!

    I think I mite do everything in gloss but the berger, I really like that in satin. But I'm sure I'll change my mind 100x by the time I get it painted. I saw an LS1 with a gloss grille and satin berger - it looked really good.

    Anybody got polo green with gloss headlight buckets? I'm in process of repainting my bumper and can't really decide.

    Mine are the factory matte-look. Though I'm going to try some satin later on, I'd like a little more gloss, but not a mirror. Not gray either.
