I quite like the idea and look of that tbh.

Maybe it will also depend on the colour of your car?

Ohhhh red and black would work really good together. I have a blue one so i think it might be able to get pulled off as well.

Are you going to go ahead and paint it or try with plasti dip like the guy on the forum?

Hey Brendan - if you do it, post a coupla photos - I think the plasti-dip is a better idea anyway as it's a bit softer, it's gonna handle scuffs & scratches from road grit much better.

I'm getting a Talon diffuser (soon hopefully) which I'm going to paint blue to match the body and after a month or so when it's properly cured, I'll go over it with plast-dip just for the protection...

I really like the idea of the vertical strips - look really neat!

I've got black vinyl on it's way and I'm going to get some black wheel moulding from Supercheap to make my own :)
It'll look like this

Beats spending $400+ on buying one!

Thats an idea Ash, although if i did it as well i wouldn't want the moulding to be that high up covering the tow bar hole.

As can be seen in the last photo theres like 3 strips, i'd rather just have the single or double.
