I think it looks the best with the contrast. It also matches up with the vents on the sides also. I'd just paint the front lip instead.

Looks better on Silvers and Grays.

Contrast is good.

I think the white vents would look great, IF you have two tin can exhausts in the back.

Gotcha....but most high end cars arent using tin these days...it's a new exotic metal substance called "Unatainium "

personally....I would keep them black.

It looks a bit too reminiscent of the 80's crazy gemballa avalanche style body kits. I automatically think Miami Vice, lol.
