Trim Wrap -> Brushed Black or Satin Black

Planning on wrapping my walnut trim either brushed black or satin black. Interior color is Saddle brown / exterior Black Sapphire Metallic.

Have seen a few pics of brushed black which look pretty dope but never against a saddle interior. If anyone has this combo a pic would be much appreciated. Have never seen pics of Satin Black...considering as an alternative to gloss black which I think looks great but the shine is a bit much for my taste

I would vote for brushed black. Matte/satin black would look cheap IMO.

I vote brushed. having a little bit of a pattern/texture will break things up and add to the look. I have a brushed gunmetal. I wanted a little bit of a contrast since the rest of the dash is black but didn't want it to stand out as much silver would.
