Wrinkle. I bought the HD horn cover to match the wrinkle black engine on my Bob.

Do a craigslist search for fxdxt in Visalia CA. Somebody is selling one with gloss parts and one with wrinkle parts. Lots of pictures to give you an idea of which way to go..

Just as long as it's black it'll look better.

I'll have to vote for the wrinkle, but my engine was wrinkle so I liked the way it blended together.

I think too much wrinkle looks terrible to be honest, no offense to those who've done it, just a personal choice. Judging by the pic in your sig, I think you'd like the contrast of the gloss between the engine and tank.
