Painted IS lip or black?

[ANDRÜ]

Im kinda stuck on this. I installed an IS lip when I did my bumper swap last september, and painted it stock lachssilber. I like the look painted, the lip is very noticable. Lately Iv been looking at alot of cars with the same lip painted trim color, and Im starting to really like the look. One reason I want to try this is I drove much too fast onthe way to a show the day after painting the lip, now its chip heaven. What do you think? Black or lachssilber?

Lachs all the way! I had mine both colors and liked the look with lachs better. Just get a Ryan G splitter for the bottom of it

paint it and cover it in stone guard.

also if it chipped that much I don't think it was prepped properly.. even my spray painted is lip held up better than that!

who cares? Paint your windshield trim.

I think you know my opinion, but I might paint it body color when I install my skirts and rear apron..

What rear apron are you getting?

I am either going to install/repair the late model apron thats in my garage or get a m-tech 2 replica from eurostylez. and I have is skirts awaiting paint and mounting hardware in my garage as well.

Thanks!
I have the iS side skirts on the way. With a 318 I am restricted to aprons that have a small (single exhaust) tail pipe opening or "glass" it.

match the lip to the body color, mine is being matched next week

Dont worry, that will be taken care of soon.

Im respraying the rear of the car sometime this summer, so maybe Ill paint the lip back, see how I ike it, then paint it back later...We'll see.

And no, I did not do a very good prep job on the lip, hence the chips
