I am having the lower rocker panels the rear peice painted Basalt Black on my Basalt Black car. Those matte grey peices are not my favorite. Does it make any difference in look though with black car. Like to see photos of cars with these peices painted that are darker in color, like blues or black. I know it looks ten times better on red and yellow.

It does make a difference. My '03 was basalt black and I had the dealer paint the front lip, sides, rear bumper plastic and the front intakes to match. Next to a friend's stock basalt black, there was a difference in the way both of the cars looked. I echo Mansour's sentiments. DO IT.

Good. Mine are being done. I hopefully will have my car back by Wednesday. I just got a new toy (Lambo 6.0) to play with, but man I miss my Turbo especially when taking the kids anywhere since I am stuck driving an SUV if I need more than 2 seats right now.

Thanks. Hope to have my car back tomorrow. Will do a new group shot. I need to update my avitar thingy anyway. Unfortunately, my daughter tried to get a little too close when taking pictures on a dolphin tour last week while in Tybee Island and my digital camera in sitting on the bottom of the bay in Savannah. Otherwise, you guys would probably be pretty sick of my pics by now. Should be remedied tomorrow also.
