Default CF Front Lip -OR- Unpainted Front Lip..??

K guys, keep in mind that I have a BSP tC.. no CF at all around my car.

I want your opinion, since its so hard to decide myself..

RacingSolution's RS1 Front lip comes in an unpainted dull black (I can get it color matched if I wanted to) and a back-ordered CF front lip..

Do you think it would look right with a CF front lip on a BSP with no CF to match around the car? or get the unpainted black lip to make everything look neutral?

But then again, CF adds style to the car.. AGHH! u guys decide..

Why would you put the other one on unpainted?

IMO, the CF would probably look good - I mean, you gotta start somewhere with CF if you like it.

hehe well, i guess the majority voted for CF =] thanks for your input guys.. when I receive it, im gonna install it and post pictures for all of you to see on how a BSP looks like without any other CF to match it..

But then again, I have plans to add other CF pieces to my car.. so this is all you'll get for now =]

good question,

this isnt the same tape that like autozone sells right??? cuz that stuff sucks imo it couldnt hold neons under the dash on my last car so i dont think it would hold a lip on the front of the car.... btw im talkin about the 3M double stick tape that comes in a roll with the green checker board pattern on the roll.... i could be wrong tho. or maybe i baught the wrong tape.

nope, that's the stuff, craziest tape ever... i use pieces in my computer to mount my water cooling set up and to cover the dvd/cd drives with the original place holders to "stealth" (hide) them, when i tried to replace one of the drives i bent the metal before i undid the tape...
