Default Paint or leave it be? 56k I dunno

My front lip was primer white b4, and everyone told me it look like crap so I got it painted black. (thx johnny) I WAS going to paint it silver (along with my sideskirts) but I'm kinda liking it black and well if its left black I'll leave the side skirts that way (yea I'm lazy) So, should I keep it black for awhile and when I get sick of it paint it silver or what? Yes and one more thing, I'm thinking about new shoes...maybe some type c knockoffs? (ssr's)

Doesn't look bad at all, but it would look much nicer if it was painted. I say paint it.

You better steal Johnnys rotas or paint the lip n skirts. If you paint it, keep the SIs on. Either way, you have two options

i say since your rims are silver paint everything silver. If your rims were black, the I would say just keep everything black. But that is just me.

if you get dark rims, i suggest leaving the lip and skirts black.

and if you plan on keeping it that way for a while, then paint your mirrors black as well.
it will all flow much better.

if your real crazy, paint the moldings black as well...but its fine painted.

Your problem is that your not doing what you want to do. Make your own decisions. Having someone tell you that front lip looks like crap and then basing a decision on someone else's opinion is lame.

Ok I'm asking others OPINIONS, not for them to make my decision. Some other ppl may have some ideas I havent thought of so back off.

and my lip did loook like crap, and my PARENTS said that, and seeing as how they pay for my car I think I should do what THEY tell me.
