Is it more of a matte black or shiny black ?

it is shiny but not a Glossy finish. It's reflective enough to use as a match for the trim on the vehicle

I would describe it as a light grey with flecks of darker grey in it and it has a matte finish, not shiney. It's definitely not white and it doesn't look metallic.

It's mostly matte, very smooth and professional... it doesn't look "cheap" or "glossy", it looks very well made and classy...I love mine! :)

I took a look at it again today after its first winter outside, the black finish is a matte finish and it appears that there has been minimal wear from the snow and ice over the winter. There was no clear coat and the finish is not shiny. Hope that helps!

It is not a dark, shiny, all over black. It is predominately black, with bronze showing through in spots, like if you wanted to antique something and sanded areas to give it a distressed look. The overall surface is matt.

I'd say it's somewhere between a glossy and matte finish on both sides, but the bottom is all black. Not real shiny like fine china, but not dull like Pfaltzgraff Yorktowne.

I believe it would be considered matte. The light that is reflected is dim, not shiny like i get from my glossy laptop screen.

Neither. It is not matte, nor shinny. I would say it is a matte finish with a sheen. Definitely not glossy.

It had 4 matte shades which are the 1st, 4-5th and 7th shades on the top which are all blending/transition shades and the black is mostly matte with a little shimmer. Everything else is shimmery but they look beautiful and some I would say are more metallic so you get a good range.

Hi Amber,, Very close to black. Matte finish. I have it mounted on a red wall, over a black framed mirror - bathroom. Very nice. Patricia

I would describe it as a horizontal brushed metallic black just like it looks in the photo. It is not glossy in the sense of polished, but has a metallic shine to it when hit by light at the right angle. It is closer to matte than glossy overall.

I'd say it's closer to a matte finish. I have had mine since August 2013 and I've been happy so far with the quality, although I haven't dropped it or anything. It fit perfectly on my laptop. It did catch at the back a bit at first, making a clicking sound when I opened it, but it went away very quickly with use. I put pictures behind it for decoration. It's not so matte as to make it hard to see through. Hope this helps!

It is not shiney, it is like a matte finish, very nice I thought. I am very impressed with them.

Just installed one and it is more of a matte finish. It is not shiney at all. I think it's very sharp looking, but more of a dull black with a slightly rough texture.

It's essentially all black, although parts are glossy and parts are matte. There is some difference in color, but I wouldn't call the lighter grey - it's definitely not as light as the picture suggests. Actually, the lighter portion is the part that is matte, and the darker portion is the part that is glossy.
