Anyone ever thought about painting the chrome lip body color? I searched around but didnt come up on anything..

also what do you guys think, for the DYI grill would the emblem look better black too or chrome on a BS? post pics of your grills maybe it'll help me make up my mind.. thanks guys

 

...What?

 

whats so hard to understand? im asking if anyones ever painted the chrome lip (shiny thing on the edge of your trunk) body color (the color of your car)..

 

Yes, a lot of people have color matched or painted it black, I am too lazy to search for you lol. What color you want?

 

I color matched mine (BO) the difference is night and day. I say go for it.

 

thanks amoney i like it alot.. for some reason it looks like the trunk of the infiniti essence to me lol.

stillballin, its cool dude i know how that fels lol, i was looking for it in bs though

 

amoney that looks awesome. next best thing to OEM spoiler, and 100x better than shiny chrome thing.

 

Yeah, that shiny chrome thing draws too much attention to itself. Spoiler or painted like amoney's is definitely the way to go.

 

 

^^Now that is a great pic of your car. Best one I have seen so far.

 

Personally, I think the chrome piece looks good on ip and silver cars....especially if you leave the grille chrome and if you have rims with chrome/stainless stee lips. In terms of the OEM spoiler...obviously looks good....but I really am considering painting the chrome piece on my IP after seein Pfizzle's ride. Keeps the rear phat and the waist thin!

 

That is an amazing picture pfizzle

 

I painted the lip on my wheels matte black, and the face is gold. It didn't turn out too good, the black part makes the wheel look smaller since it blends in with the tire. The wheel size I got was 20". So now I'm going to chrome the lip out. But don't get me wrong, if you pin stripe the outside of the lip, then it will separate the tire from the wheel, and it will look decent. But, the look just wasn't for me.

 

damn the painted lip deff. looks nice, but i recently came across a carbon fiber one on the forum n boy am i lost. lol i dont know which way to go here guys..
