Defrost vent/ Dash filler panel color?

[TBK1]

this is a 77 black interior, what should be the closet color, flat semi or gloss black>???

I would think the color would match the dash and the vinyl trim that runs up the interior windshield frame.

As for the gloss, I don't like the dash shiny because it creates glare. I painted my dash and filler panel with satin black.

Mine was painted the same color as the dash (and old dash cap) so when I replaced the dash cap, I painted it all the same color ( black vinyl paint.) I think that it would be a good idea to paint that part and anything else under the windscreen with something that won't reflect the sun into your eyes or back at the windscreen.
