I've a thread of how to do it using 2 sets and shows which part to spray

As for paint it shouldn't make a difference if it's gloss or matte, I use gloss but only because I never use matte and normally have gloss about the garage lol
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:
