Gloss or Flat black paint for roof rails

So I want to repaint my 06' 325i's roof rails because they are faded pretty bad.
I want to respray them back to their original black color but what is the stock color, flat black or glossy black?
I've seen people on Youtube paint them both ways.

Unless you had the ZHP package's gloss trim you would use a satin black, like SEM Part #39143 Trim Black.
