    I vote for painting them. I did it with mine and thought it looked much better.

        I'm partial to the contrast with the black stripe on the bottom. Poor e30 vert ;( Goodbye

        I think that with plastics it could look better; the diving boards without any valence in the rear, and overbite in the front, painting mine white would have visually painted the car lower in the middle in peoples eyes. Kind of like the fake reverse rake. The rockers are flat. Basically my opinion is early verts leave the stripe, late model or with kits it could be easier to be appealing painted in. Everything is complicated :D '90 verts still had DB's! I got robbed (Mine was a 90).

          Being a alpine vert owner, I say paint the rockers and rear valance to match, or paint the lip black.
