What color should i paint back my lip? plus i need a photochop of it in black[pic]

ok well i got into an accident and most my car is fixed, but my lip chippped badly, now what color should i paint it? black or the beige?
btw can someone photoschop this lip for me in black?

i dont want to keep spending a 100 dollars everytime to paint the lip, so i figured i can buy a can for 5 dollars and make look good. btw ive spent some good money on my car from the accident and i dont have that much left.
post your opinions



i know body color looks nice, but i aint got the dough right now

can someone chop it black for me?

Dude why do you ALWAYS post a poll on what you want to do next to your car? F*ck what we think. Do what you want...these polls never lead to you ultimate decision anyway.

I'd say gloss black + black grille

That was like flat black. Paint it black but shiny b/c from far itll like its carbon fiber, otherwise the beige looks good.

do you need to cover up scratches from bottoming out or from when you hit the curb? if you're trying to cover scratches from bottoming out then just paint the bottom where you're going to keep bottoming out

Agreed, seems like no one can be original anymore. People do what others want them to do.

I think Im going to start going this route as well.......

Beige man.. The only way to get away with a different color lip is if it was carbon fiber.
Your car looks sick beige.
