G'day from NZ. I managed to get hold of a kit that comprises of a front splitter,side skirts and extended rear bumper,only cost $100 [33 quid ] I fitted it up and it fits perfect and lines up nicely with existing screw/bolt holes, only had to drill 4 extra holes for skirts. Thing is now that its on a few peeps have commented that it looks ok black.My plan was to take it off and get it painted the same as the car WHAT DO U THINK. Also because there's also quite a bit of black on the car what do u think of blacked out rear lights or green lenses like the VENOM demo car.I want to make the right choice as i've got to import them so i want to get the look right 1st time. Also planned DTM style exhaust, lowering,and maybe change of grill. Look forward to your opinions. .

id paint it mate, get it all colour coded !!

if you wanna go for the black/green theme then you should black out your front grille so the slats are black and the surround is green. then gofor the blacked out/smoked lights.

look at the photo for what i mean about the grille. the slats blacked out




but as it seems you have started to colour code the front by greening the slats out then i think you should drop the bump strips and get some from the mk5 and get those colour coses code the door handles sideskirts bumpers and splitter. and make it the almighty green machine.





i hope ross doesnt mind me stealing his pictures.

As what has been said above realkly
either all green or....
black grille and badge and 16v lights.

yea defintly colour code it mate an get a black grill and lose the bump strips along the doors, get it lowered 60+ an u car will look HOT

I'd paint the rear valance and the side skirts, but I'd leave the front as it is.

You know how it is, you get it painted and then you rub a kerb.

paint the rear, leave the rest and get a black grill

Smooth the rear diffuser into the bumper and paint it, MK5 style then

Thanks for the opinions
I've decided to paint the kit,remove the bump strips and go for smoked rear lights.Oh and get it dropped.thanks again for yer help.

good choice mate

G'day mate,

I'm sure with your paint knowledge it will look fantastic. The paint advice you gave me for my Pistachio touch-ups came up a treat.

Cheers,
Mo
