looks good - i sprayed mine flat black (Mounted the same way as urs, however I used double sided tape to keep the top edge mounted to the bumper)

Also, since my muffler sits right behind the lip, it melted it and warped the beegus out of it.

Now I gotta find a new rear lip for my coupe.

Good job on the paint job! Its all in the prep
