I want to buy new BSD WZA bars but I dont know what the difference between ED Black and Gloss Black. I want to know which one will suit my matt black forks and frame best.

My Redline G7 frame is ED black, and it's slightly shiny, kind of satin black, between gloss and matte. It matches most other black parts on the market though. I'd get them.

I understand this thread is about the difference in luster. But for those wanting to know what the process is, here's a wiki link.
