Default 60 kick panel paint question

My 60 has a black interior. Was the kick panel color gloss like the gauge cluster or was it semi-gloss or semi-flat to blend better with the door panels?

Thanks in advance for any replies!

They were painted with the same paint that the body was, gloss lacquer. They were not rubbed out like the body, but there was no flatener added to the paint.

If you're painting them with a rattle can, you want gloss black.
