Looking for a gloss black license plate frame
Can't believe I'm posting this, but to my amazement I can't find anything online.
I'm looking for a gloss (piano) black license plate frame, that matches the black pack bits on our cars. Everything I can find is a semi-gloss black or completely matte. They are almost all painted metal, rather than plastic.
(I use a frame because I don't like that the bottom holes in my rear plate are unfilled when mounting the plate bare. I leave the front plate bare.)

Nearly all of ours that you buy with the clear or lined screens have gloss black edges, but maybe that is a semi gloss. I'd wrap the edges in gloss black. I think there would be a risk of the paint failing if you paint them because you flex them a bit getting them on.
This black frame on eBay is shiny and has a bit of texture: https://www.ebay.com/itm/PLAIN-BLACK...kAAOSw3SdeKPNa
This one on Amazon says gloss black stainless steel. You can choose 2 hole or 4, and security fasteners or plain. Got good reviews.

Thanks for the links guys.
I suspect both of those are broadly using the same kind of paint on metal process that leads to at best a semi-gloss finish. They both look a lot like what I already have on the coupe.
