Matte black wrap

I'm dropping the car off in the morning to get it wrapped matte black. That's gonna be my Christmas present...
Need opinions as to what to do with my chrome window trim and kidney grill?
Matte black as well or should i make a little contrast, to do them in shiny, gloss black? Any input, suggestions appreciated.

^If the window trim was done in gloss black, the wheels might've matched a little better. Regardless, the wrap looks good!

Your car is looking very stealth! I think you are one of the first e93 (non-M) with the full matte.
