my vote, paint to match

 

You wont be able to notice the imperfection on the front bumper as much if you seperate the area by painting the bumper molding black. Get some black electrical tape and do a mock setup just to get a feel for what its going to look like....then decide.

 

I Kept the moldings to save the doors from Wife, Jack Asses in parking lots Ect. I did paint the trim on the F & R bumpers and wish I had not becuase they are starting to chip due to the fact they are rubber. I would not paint them If I had to do it all over again.
Very Nice car I have the Same seats.

 

Pull the molding off, bare sheet metal is sexy ..

 

not to sure man, looks good with or without moldings, also looks good painted or black.
for the look of your car, which looks great by the way, id say leave'm on and paint to match.

 

Remove the trim.

 

Either way nice car man.

 

Thanks for all the complements and opinions...

wow, it seems like there is a strong "keep it black" motion....


Latin270- good idea with the electrical tape... I'm gonna try that out. I'll post pictures when i do.

Southrunner- your car looks great, you have the side skirts I want!! LOL Your car is a good example of what I needed to see....

13 Beef- Your seats are better than mine! LOL Mine are the "sprint" seats which are non-reclinable

 

Thanks dude, evertime I hear a compliment I tend to like my kit even more. I was thinking about selling it for a wide body. But then I would have to find the right wheels to go with it which isn't cheap. Your car is going to look sweet either way you go.

 

Thanks bro....

Have you considered lowering your car even more? I will be lowering the car even more very soon.... It looks wider when closer to the ground. Your car with the full kit would look really sweet. I know that you run the risk of destroying the bumper though.

I don't have side skirts but I do have a copy of the 5Liter bumper off the Blue car to put on. I just didn't want to cover the fuel cell but to put that spoiler it needs the rear bumper.

I'll take pictures so you can see the outcome, since we practically have the same car!

It's just a matter of getting under the car, this rx7 has the gc coilovers up front and the rear adjusters from Iscracing.net

 

Jimmy, sad to hear the car got beaten by rust... but this new one is looking like it will be one mean car. you should send me an E-mail some time and we will meet up!
