Looks quite nice like that but I also feel leaving it as is will run with the darker gloss black features especially the diffuser below and the gloss black kidney grills (and the side indicators done in black), we are also planning to have the wheels done in smoked chrome to finish off the look.
Fit it and see what you think, if your are not happy you could have it sprayed...... |

And you will change your mind again and again lol
Always the way just like choosing a colour..... It does appear we are heading the same path, you have some good taste lol As for the side indicators, black is the way to go in my opinion, my mate who sorts out all my paint and body work on my track astra will sort out what I need but going from the GP safety car, black is the business. If I ever need to put it oem it wont cost an arm and a leg to replace.... |

Awesome pics! Had a change of heart a few months ago when finally seeing the VO in person (which I thought would be my final color choice), so off to AW is my order now, and looks like I will be more than happy with that choice. Keep these beauties coming, guys!

Look forward to seeing it mate
we requested a Dec delivery so we can't really complain lol as for the steering wheel, only one I would be keen on fitting is the alcantara wrapped M wheel as found in the M3 CRT |
