Default Half painted Veilside lip on Silverstone

I put this on a while back, but I tought I would post a few pics of it because I have not seen it done yet on silverstone. I like it - it looks more aggresive than having it all painted IMO.

Thanks -

I don't have any from directly in front, but that's a good idea - I'll try to get some.

- So I can see what cars in front of me see in their rear view as I'm bearing down on them

I definitely like that look, it's unique and it's clean...Nothing crazy, looks like how it should...Did you at least clear coat the unpainted part?

I like it, just not sure I like it more, if I decide I do, I call bat up and do an overlay on it.

I think you have a dark theme going so it works very well

Thanks guys-

It's just unpainted urethane in the middle. I left it dark because I have dark wheels, if I had silver or polished wheels, I would have painted it. I had Bat's tail light overlays but I couldn't get them to go on very good so I took them off. I'll probably try again sometime.
Bat and KamikaZ - do you use anything special to clean and protect the unpainted part - I don't want it to fade.

Love the contrast...I think it looks much better than if you painted the whole spoiler.
