Default Black lips on Silver two-tone, opinions/suggestions?

So I got myself a:

Seibon replica urethane lip:


Nismo Rears from punksterz626:


2 questions:

1. what side-skirt would look best with these? I was thinking either the Veilside v1 skirt-add ons or nismo skirts.

2. Do a black on silver two-tone, meaning the lips will be black? Possibly a c/f in the future + tints. ?

Thanks for any opinions.

The black lip looks great on silverstone but I saw it on a chrome silver recently that I didn't like at all. I would recommend Nismo sides or Ings +1 replica

Seibon doesn't make urethane. It's carbon fiber.

Don't tell me honestly since I obviously don't have a clue that I'm going to answer you.

Mod's might as well close this thread before more flamers jump on board.

lol who cares what it is. ppl on this forum fight and flame over the dumbest stuff that isnt even related...

i think nismo sides might flow, Ings +1 might be too low for it?
(Also, did you test fit your rears yet? I got mine from punksterz626 also and it seems to have slight gap and not align 100% perfect.. but it is fiberglass (which i hate) and so I gotta get a shop to fix it I suppose)

I will test fit them, but I doubt I'll have issues, if so I'll just send em back and get other ones, thats only if its a huge gap or something like that.

I thought too Ings might be a little low, Nismo's sound good though, I was looking at veilside v1 add-on's though, they seem to flow just as well as the nismo's.

You are right though people do flame over anything and everything...i'll post up in the summertime when i get everything on...

cool cool cannot wait to see it.
i was also thinking about if the veilside v1's would flow but i just didnt type it. I dont know if the v1 little sides come down enough to match the rear flare tho? idk if anyone would even notice.

so I picked up those veilside v1 addons...what you think, front lip, side skirts and rear nismo add-ons all black (making it two tone) or have them all painted SS to match the car?

I needs the feedback!
