So I sold my black saleens before winter because they had really bad curb rash on 3 of them and my tires were practically bald. So I bought brand new black saleens wrapped with hankook evo v12's. I know you guys might think im lame for buying the same exact wheels I had before and I was considering chrome saleens but i just doubt it would look as good with all the black accents my car has...so here are a few phone pics i snapped today

Updates since last summer: new brakes with drilled/slotted rotors, new black corners without reflector, brand new saleens/tires...and hopefully a black s281 spoiler soon to come

looks great but please paint the S281 body color.

You think? I was considering that cause i actually have some left over canary yellow paint that i bought i while back to paint my bumper but i dont know...i think black might look good and thats how it comes so if i dont have to paint it cause it already looks good thats fine with me haha. thanks for the comments guys

Every one I've seen that's not body color looks unfinished to me. If you want some black on the back of the car I'd go with the tail light bezels or tinted lenses and the bottom of the bumper of course. If it comes in black though no harm in throwing it on.

Honestly I think it would look better if the spoiler and scoops were body color. seems pieced together. I've seen a lot worse though I'll tell you that much.

Everybody has their own opinion, so for what it's worth, here's mine...

unpainted/primered/flat black (basically anything other than body color) that is bolted on or stuck on to a car looks like the owner couldn't afford to get the part painted. It's like all of the euro car's that you would see running around after the fast and furious movies came out where these guys bought body kits, stuck them on their cars and never got them painted.
