Painting wiper arms, what sheen?

Just wondering, I think once I get my TL back, I'm going to paint them, they are starting to look a bit aged (what do you expect, 9 years/150k miles) and would like to get them abck again.

Flat
Satin
Gloss

Vote away. My plan is gloss so far, but I really don't know until I get them on there...

Damn, now that you mention it, I got the same problem.
I'll be painting it glossy black. Going to do it along with my other projects this summer.

Glossy is too reflective and Flat already looks dull and aged. Satin is the factory look, so I'd go with that.

Motoring, thanks, that's the sort of answer I was figuring no one would know, haha, we'll see how it goes.
