What color to paint frt bumper??

[SpooledupRacing]

ok here is a picture of the bumper.. my car as you all know is RED with a black hood (so I have the whole red/black thing going on..

My question is.. the top (actual BUMPER COVER) is going to be red..
Should I do the entire stock lip that bolts to the bumper in black.. or just the bottom half that curves underneath (the little ears on both sides)

let me know.

I would paint the whole thing black (exc. the grille supports) and then paint the sides skirts to match

I say paint match the bumper, then paint the stock lip or whatever black to match the side skirts.

 

[SpooledupRacing]

yeah my side skirts are black...

My current setup

I was thinking doing the ENTIRE bottom "lip" in black.. not just at the bend and down..

well to be honest I am maybe 2 hours away from being able to primer it (got a few spots with old paint still left on there.. I hope to have it primered by tomorrow.

Dave, why don't you get an ITR or Si-VTEC lip?

Another thing I was curious of.. do you guys think I should leave it stock or cut all of the little veins out in the "grille" area

 

[dc2GS-R]

Leave them, but be sure not to paint them. It looks funky with the grill supports painted

ok so should I paint the middle beam (horizontal beam) or leave that stock black too.

he means si vtec lip which was the 94 integra lip. if you wanna know waht they look like Matt (jdmxdb8) has one and i have the USDM type R one.

 

[SpooledupRacing]

I'm lost.. 94 integra SI vtec??? huh?

i have a 94 integra and my lip is just like the one I have posted above (the new one)

 

[Samurai_Blue]

JDM 93-95 integra gsr= Si-Vtec
JDM 96-00 integra GSR= SIR G
