I tried everything but the black car wont shine and looks very matt. Is there a way to make black or very dark objects shiny as well?
Playin with an idea of a 30s Mafia game, so I want some shiny cars...

Yes; if the model is PBR, make sure your _gloss texture is also black on the bits you want shiny. Game Guru calls it "gloss" but actually it works like roughness map, where white is rough (not shiny), and the more black bits are, the shinier they are.

If the model is DNS, make sure the _S texture is white or almost white on the bits you want shiny.

Does the .fpe reference a shader file? Might also be why the roughness map does not work.
