    I p-chop'd: lip/bumpers/skirts/ducts... ALMOST paint-dipped

    The black and whites are provided for easier/better viewing of the contrast and not worrying so much about the color matching itself.

    Just thought I would try some options out. I am really torn as to what the future will bring for these parts.

    Maybe I should try more pics just like this but from a exact profile angle also.

    Chop'd:

          I added the original pic for reference.

          I do like the contrast of the black bumper strips, but painting them was something I have considered for a long time.

                          Euro trim, and dont paint the rear sheet metal. Only paint that if you get a true rear valance. I say satin black skirts, black is lip and ducts. That is my plan anyway. I think the contrast would be nice.
