I think you should leave the lip as is. I think it looks perfect in black.

s14_legend 04-22-2008 03:31 PM

just leave it black...

blackrms13 04-22-2008 04:26 PM

red car with a black xenon lip looks really hot
black roof would definitely be a plus
and get some Time Attack style wheels to match :D
and ur set!

omg...just talking about it sounds so sexy...haha...maybe its just me

oh look at gripstr's car for some reference

punxva 04-22-2008 05:13 PM

i voted black with black roof, red and black will always look good together

ms!3 04-22-2008 09:02 PM

color matched its always cool too. its your car tho.

if you dont have sideskirts, leave it black. If you do have skirts, paint it to flow with the rest of the car. I was kinda in the same predicament a while back and decided to paint it.

That looks so nice!!! I guess im going to start looking for sideskirts

I left mine black but I have a black car. I would leave it black until you get those sides. After that the color match looks pretty hot.

The chuki bumper looks really nice without the front plate, too bad in live in So Cal

MaD1337M3DRiV3r 04-23-2008 05:41 PM

For the roof im thinking either black and red checkers or the japanese flag

J-flag would look cool I have a sunroof so it's a no go for me. I got a cool design for the hood though. Hopefully I'll get it done soon.

***Post a pic of your car. It'll make this easier.***

dont see how the japanese war flag is gonna work with a sunroof

black looks clean w/ black top or black lip w/ red top looks good to.

imnotmatt1189 10-02-2008 10:24 PM

i voted red w/ red roof

SUPERSTAR 10-03-2008 12:53 AM

I say paint it red with black roof and dark tint. Lip looks good when same color as car.

color match!

DRFT180 01-05-2009 05:55 PM

I like mine black with the black roof. Plus it touches the ground wayyy to often for me to be comfortable painting it.

Black on black is classic.

Black on black is always sexy...

Krunk_Dog 06-22-2010 06:15 PM

Black definetly. Ive thought about painting my xenon lip but i just dont think it would look as good if it was the same color as the body.
