Do it! I'm leaning towards a matte lambo gun metal look, kinda like it. But will most likely just end up color matching it.

That's a good point to consider, thankfully I have some time.

Just confirmed, it shipped on Friday, thankfully I've had a car to drive around for a while, otherwise I would've had to cancel already. Hood / Headlamp should be on the way and be here right around the same time.

NO FRAME DAMAGE FTW!
