What looks the best...
 
What looks the best as far as paint on the underside of the hood. Gloss Black,flat black, or the same color as the truck.

Really it is whatever you prefer. I use semi-gloss for the engine compartment and underside of hood.

My truck is going to be a daily driver. So I will go with semi-gloss when that point comes. The reason for this is if any fluid leaks occur they won't show up as bad as a color matched engine bay would.
Eventualy I want to build a show truck when I am finished with this one which will have a colormatched engine compartment.
just what I think.
