they need to tone down that blue! Its kinda ugly.

I think in maybe a different color, but as shown is ugly.

With that color it doesn't look that nice, but I have seen color matching lip schemes that have worked. Look up cars built by Gene Tjin that are pretty nice!

I like color matched wheels in many instances, but not the color matched lip though...

I only like color matched black, gunmetal, silver, or gold wheels. Those look bad.

just not in the right color. I rather do some type of pin striping kit instead. Its cheap and looks like time attacks.

I did a little digging and found this site with pics, and I suppose Gene writes for overboost, but couldn't find much else....
