looks great! I personally only like the unpainted front lip and unpainted feed sides on black cars, so I say you should paint the feed sides as well. makes them seem more like they belong on the car to me, just my opinion, I'm sure others will disagree.

It looks nice. I would not choose to paint mine because as you know they get road rash from debris and curbs or what have you. You will have to inevitably have to paint it again at some point. Regardless I think you have done an A1 job with your car from what I have seen and it looks great.

I have to say that I think it looks better painted, even though the sides are back. Makes the front look more complete and more mean.
You considering using some 3M clear tape to protect your lower lip from rocks? I was thinking of using that if I had a painted lower lip.

Plus I am considering buying some different side skirts. If anyone is interested in a nice set of feed side skirts. i may consider the thought. They are only 3 months old with mabe 200 miles on them. Perfect shape. Not in a hurry, but im just pondering the thought.
