So i painted the front bumper silver(it was previously black).... Now that the car is all matched i hate the color

my previous two cars were black which i love so im leaning towards repainting the car black

I've always hated silver and its just not doing it for me





any other suggestions besides black?

 

Different wheels and match paint the lip and side skirts... I dont think it looks terrible now except for the wheels...

 

silver paint holds up the best looks wise, in terms of visibility of swirls/scratches . is dead easy to dry off after washing, and is really easy to wash, and you can run any colour wheel combo with it basically.... so ya.. i think silver is great.

 

Looks good as it is, a lot better with the matching bumper. But if you really want a new color, I think Thunder Gray Metallic would be nice.

 

the silver looks great dont repaint

 

cars clean . it just doesnt look like the bumper lines up to great. if you want black i would just trade somebody or sell it and get a black one becouse that paint is to fresh to cover up

 

Looks great to me!!

 

Much better than the black

 

Keep it the way it is.

 

Black

 

yeah, its hard to go from a black car to another color. i did but after time, i just stopped caring lol

 

looks a lot better than mismatched

 

Get some white wheels!

I agree, I think better wheels will make a big difference.

 

It looks fine to me bro....I think it looks good.


I vote for some white wheels too.

 

The bumper doesnt match the silver of the rest of the car

 

looks good just needs wheels

 

^^yup, I think that's what is throwing you too.

 

front bumper fitment is , would look a lot nicer with the jdm front end conversion instead ....oh and new wheels would help too

 

silver is not bad looking even though black &gt; silver

but if you're repainting go for phoenix yellow with ITR front

the car looks good... just leave it like that until you take it to a shop and get it done with base coat/clear coat.
don't paint it in black, the car looks great as it is!
