I saw a Black Porsche GT3 with Flat black, but with a car like that, does anything look bad?

matte. Gloss black will be a BITCH to maintain. They get swirl marks in the wheels so easily.. and it's nearly impossible to buff

i voted matte black, but since your car is BB i would choose a different color. i dont really like black on black too much. id try Takata green or maybe try getting the Mag blue color. there is a pic floating around here somewhere with a black RSX with takata green CR Kai's and it looks absolutely bad ass. I think its a thread created just for ppl with takata green wheels.

edit: found the pic:
