need opinion on painting my N2 style bumper
I think Phenom is right. I am def painting the bumper the same color as the car but the inside grill area all black. Now I am on the fence on doing the canards or not. I will get them painted black in anycase but not sure if I will have them installed. Myabe I'll just put them on my road bike, hahahaha.
I'm now hunting down some side skirts. I maybe just get the front and rears installed and wait til i come across some sides i like. hopefully the car won't look silly without the sides.

I just dropped off the car at the shop for paint. Guy mentioned something interesting and that i hadn't heard before and is concerning to me - he said I shouldn't drive the car in the winter because my front bumper is fiber glass and he said it would crack if even a pebble hit it at highway speeds. I aslked why and he said the cold weather makes the bumper weak. Anyone heard anything like that before?
As an aside the car is in the garage 95% of the time and hardly gets used, especially in the winter, but I thought that was an interesting comment. I had an Acura RSX a few years back with a full cwest style body kit and i used that car in the winter and never once had an issue with it and i'm pretty sure it was fiber glass too. Can anyone up north or in cold weather with a fiberglass kit comment on this?
*** BTW - Edit on original post - I went with option A except I opted to get the rear diffuser area flat black instead of gloss black. I also opted to to keep the hamburger emblem in the front
