Just got my New Urethane Veilside V1 lip yesterday, just wondering if I should paint it DB or Glossy black, or just leave it the way it is? I kind of like bat's style, (hey Bat if you are reading, did you paint your center part or just left it unpainted?).
I'm also going to get a custom side splitters or side skirt, so I will have some time before I paint it. I thought the unpainted surface does kind of match the outline of my grill as well, what do y'all think? Does anyone know where to get a good price and quality on replica Nismo side skirt (Sorry bat, not trying to copy you, but just thinking? ). I could get the custom side splitters for about $150 and I have to shape it to look somewhat look like the Axis yellow Z, except in DB . or I could paint it flat black to match the front. But then again, I've already ordered the Mercury silver rims, so if I do that, I should of got the gunmetal instead. Anyway, let me know what you all think of it?

 

Paint it to match the car.

 

Oh, I've also find some metal piece at Home Depot to make a bracket for my Grille-Tech Grill, for those that still using the grill, it's a sample piece that you have to modified it to fit, but it is very durable and secure! I've also used the allen screw and nut to secure it! I eletrical taped the inside, so you can't see the inner clip, and only see the allen screw on the outside.

Actually this picture is one of those illusion deal, if you try to focus too hard to see where the clip, your brain go dizzy!

 

Since you have mercury silver rims and clear sidemarkers, I would probably paint it blue.

 

well definitly not as it is, looks like dull black plastic.

a glossy black wouldnt be so bad.

you could maybe paint the sides and bottom lip blue, and paint the part under the grill(but not the lip, thats blue) black. its a look...

lots of options I dont think any will look bad.

 

Yeah, that is what I was thinking too, I guess I'll have to wait for the splitters or side skirt to get here first.
You mentioned in another thread about were those fog lights behind the grill, yes they are. They are some dichronic fog lights that I pick up on ebay, they light up kind of light blue and when you look at them sideway, they look amber(good for the cops ). I just want to see how they will look with it on, I'm planning to get some Piaa X1100 (I think?) later.

 

Paint the whole thing blue, looks a lot better, unless you have dark rims like BAT.

 

I also think you should paint it, it will look great

 

leave it unpainted until you beat it up a bit

then paint it...

thats what I would do personally but then again im very hard on mycar

 

I hace the V1 lip with just the sides DB and i like it a lot..Id like it fully painted though also so i dont kno its all preference, look at some pics and decide
