Default Vinyl Wrapping Rear Bumper & License Plate Area Black on Blue...Thoughts?

Hey everyone - I'm just playing around in PS and wondering what you guys think of wrapping part of the bumper in black matte or gloss vinyl with the license plate area? I'm getting my fangs and diffuser vinyl wrapped next week and wanted to know what you guys think about doing this as well.

Props to Modshack's car to use for my mockups

Original w/ chrome plated Z plates (I'm looking to get):



Blacked out license plate area only:



Blacked out license plate area & rear bumper:



It kind of reminds a lot of the amuse rear:



I definitely love this front look:



But debating whether to get the roof wrapped too:



And finally anyone know who to contact for these lights?



If anyone else has any cool ideas to make it more unique, please feel free to post here with pics.

i would leave the rear stock other than getting a valance or getting the lower part of the bumper painted (or unpainted) like modshack had his car.

I don't mind the last rear shot.

I think stock looks best. If you are going to paint anything just the rear valence. Anything else takes away from the car IMO.
