Two problems.
- You're not a McLaren F1, so your windshield wiper does not look cool.
- The exhaust.
That is all I present this conversation with, as you can tell I am of the conservative school of thought when it comes to modifications.
Third thing I realized, the filter on the intake = loss of power. It leaves no time for the air to gather velocity before reaching the plenum. But I see you have an intake on order, so the world is a happier place.
Positive - Flat black just works, I'd never do it but it just works in this occasion.
