Gloss or matte scope?

I have a matte scope on a blue barrel and it looks fine.
One point I would like to add......I see many more glossy used scopes with scratches on them , then I do matte scopes. What do people think, does the gloss scratch easier, or is due to the fact that there are more old gloss scopes around?

I to agree with the "match the rifles finish". BUT I have yet to see any of the custom finished scopes from Leupold. In their custom shop you can get many different finishes including a gloss WHITE! They also have a silvery paint finish that I wonder what it would look like on say an A-bolt White Gold Medallion?
I would likewise like to find a "blue chrome" finish to match a 300Wby Deluxe Mk V of mine!
