Mornin all.
One of my mates is starting his own business touching up/painting cars. He has offered to paint my bumper strips just for the cost of the paint.
But I don't know what colour to go for! I have black angel eyes and a black dimma grille which is leaning me towards just painting them black but he thinks colour coding them silver would look better. Or do I go for a completely random colour like yellow or something?
Discuss please.
With example pics if you can find them on a silver vt*
Cheers

Honestly, keep them plastic, just get the super airgun out and get the back up nice

silver matched well would make it look nice but the gloss black would break up all the silver bits making it less boring lol so gloss black imo

dont do a random colour, they will look terrible, either get them done silver, or gloss black

Just plain gloss black?
What about black with maybe a purplish tint to it?
