Default Imola orange?

Hey,

Here some pics of my EG hope u guys enjoy. I have a question to go with it though. Underneath the black on my skirts are orange. The black is starting to peel and i can see the orange. You think there would be a way to get rid of the black and get a nice finish of orange? If not I could just get them painted in the spring or somthing when the weather gets better but do you guys think it would look good if the skirts and lip were all color matched? Anyone with some good photoshop skills feel free.

Thanks

I've always been a fan of the flat black lip and color matching everything else.

Edit: Fix your 3 grills up front. Flat black.
