Nissan 370Z Forum  

Need some help guys.

So I painted my front lip and diffuser... Got overconfident and didn't check my color... And now it's darker. Thing is I can't decide if I like it or not.

Honestly I like it a lot. Two accent colors looks good, even though that's not what you were going for.

Doesn't look bad in the pics. Would have to see it in person to really tell. I think it works well with the CF Fangs.

Thanks guys. Everyone that I have asked had said that I should leave it as is and that when the rear goes on it will pull it together. I just don't want it to look like I'm doing it wrong lol.
