Peach/Paul needs YOUR OPINION!!

Time to repaint my front lip. Its peeling and cracked because my car's so gangsta. My front lip got all messed up from running over dead dogs and homeless people. So... I need your opinion...

Should I paint my front lip the same body color or black? If black, gloss black or matte/flat black?

Your opinions are greatly appreciated!

I would paint to match the car color. The black color to make the kit stand out like an unfinish project like those Civic's I see on the roads.

matte black is nice if you have just a front lip and it's lower than the side of the body of the car. it also looks nice if you have a lighter coloured car to add contrast.

but i have to agree with lammy. if you are having just the front lip matte black, it might look like the it's unfinished.

i would go with your car's color. plus it will keep that sick fmic more hidden since the lip doesnt stand out so much as with black or flat black haha, just my 2 cents
