Looks good mate did you keep a can for additional bits ie if you buy a front lip if you could get the red interior it would look great against that colour :twisted:

+1 and paint your chrome badges gloss black to match your wheels :) I like it.

You can smooth out the paint with some light wet-sanding mate.
