Painting Stillen Lip

[Bretahn J.]

Any oppinions on painting the Stillen Lip. I have a dark slate coupe and I am thinking about painting the lip black instead of dark slate to match the car. What do you guys think?

I'd think it'd be pretty cool, you should do whatever you feel like doing.

paint it pink.

Breast cancer awareness month was October. I donated enough and pink is not an option.

Might look good. My grandpa has a Volvo s40 that came with the factory ground effects and the body is silver and the ground effects (rockers & front lip) are gray, looks really really nice in my opinion.

On a related note, that s40 is the sweetest car I have ever drove. Its like a lil go kart its so quick and responsive.

When he decides to hang up the keys im going to put a bigger turbo and such and turn that car into a real burner.

the GT-R comes with a black body kit... and usually color matching it is the first thing ppl do... it looks much better color matched. not color matched looks like a ricer... thats actually like the definition of a ricer, different color body parts. if you want it black, just dont paint it since it comes black (or at least my front fascia came black).

Does the way it come match well with the bumper? I should be gettingmine this week & if I could get away with not spending on parintingit that would be cool.

its more like a flat black color.... heres a pic of my car when i first got my stillen front fascia and was test fitting it before paint

Might look good. Test fit it when you get it. See if you like it black, if not paint it. Take pics of the test fit.

I've been thinking about doing hte same exact thing for a while now...and im on the verge of getting it done! haha

I have been waiting for someone to paint the stillen lip, side skirts, and rear corners black and put it on a coupe that is not black.

Okay, will do. It should be up in about a week or so.

Well, after seeing the pics of how the Fascia comes. I will have to paint it either way, whether I paint it black or color match. If I leave it the way it comes, that will spell ricer all day.

True, but it will give you a better idea of what a gloss black would look like.

[razah9]

Painting it is.

The Lip has arrived and it is a matte black, I will post pics of the test fit soon.

I think I will color match it. Once I put the Black rims on there, it might look better. Comment as needed.
