    ok so my car is black and the front fascia is silver, and a little beat up nothing too bad tho just some rock chips and things like that here and there. i have all the badges on the car done with reflective red from reflective concepts. stock 5 spoke polished rims. and i plan on getting black projectors eventually as well as top and bottom satin grills, probably the set back ones. unless for some reason i go with black but thats doubtful. so anyways should i leave the paint on the front fascia as is, paint it red (the same glossy red that some grand prixs came in, not redfire metallic) or paint it black? what do ya guys think?

    black will blend right in, so you need something else that will stand out. i also vote for a color because im sick of bland styling.
