apologies for the iPhone pictures but: gloss black roof wrap and fender ducts. I'll eventually redo them but they look good enough for now.

Great job MAizz. I had my roof wrapped in black as well. I also changed the shark fin to a black one.

Thanks, the last time I wrapped my roof I dipped the rails and fin, i might look into buying a black set though.

Don't you think that now your front looks more like a regular ISx50? They have smaller front grills and now yours looks that way. I think painting it black like a center badge, it would look meaner.

The other grille surround I have is dipped black. I wanted to try something different.

Don't get me wrong, it looks really good specially the color matches perfectly. I was thinking of wraping mine in carbon but those black matte dips look awesome too.

Not at all. I appreciate your comments. I did this with rattle cans.

Thank you! The bumper OE. The lip is Auto Couture, I don't think it's being made anymore.

Pretty good job for a rattle can project. Did you spray any clear coat on top of it? It has a nice gloss to it.

I got a used surround on ebay. I removed the chrome (PITA) to get to the base plastic. Repaired a couple of cracks, the plastic was quite brittle. Adhesion promoter, 3 coats primer, 3 coats base and 3 coats clear. Wet sand & buff.
