Opinions please.

Ello, Ok im at the spray or not to spray stage, I have a rear milotec diffuser, an LCR splitter and the bumper and door pads all in black oh and the front gills that sit in front of the front wheels.

I was thinking of getting them all sprayed red the same as the car.

So my options are -

Keep all of the above black

Spray all of above red

Or keep the splitter and diffuser black and spray the rest

Or any of combo you can think of

Incidently I spent the day at impossible performance yesterday and whilst staring at des's broken car again i started the day not keen on the splitter at all(mine is not fitted yet) to coming round to it and rather liking it, but myself and mike's dad agreed it may look better in red, but im not sure....

So your opnions please ladys and gents.

Cheers

P.S if you want your cambelt and water pump changed, mike does it very cheep

Re: Opnions please.

Hmm the problem with painting the splitter is how low it sits. I've caught mine a couple of times so far on minor speed humps. If you painted it would it be possible that the paint would show stress cracks?? Also you might scrape the paint of really easily.

Not sure on the rest.

Do you have any pics??

Cheers

Re: Opnions please.

No mine is standard ride height. With the car lowered you are going to be hitting the cats eyes lol.

In that case I would say leave it black and get a spare!!

If the front bumper bits are the side vents then go for paint. Body mouldings are personal pref really. Could look rather nice.

What does the rear diffuser look like??

Cheers

Since these photo's were taken, I have colour coded the reversing sensors, but it shows what the milotec rear defusor & bumper & door bump strips look like colour coded
