Default How to Paint my V1

Just picked up a Nismo V1 front end about a week ago, deciding on how to paint it and would like opinions.

The grill / bar and lip will of course be painted black, the option here is whether to go flat black or satin black.

^ is it the V1 or the aerosync? the reason that i wouldn't go with painting the lip the same color as the car is because the V1 has that line that separates the lip from the rest of the bumper.

to each his own, thanks for the opinion.

what are you considering the difference between flat and satin black, i would consider them the same as both appear dull.
