Opinions on smokey mica granite spoilers/grill on Mercury Metallic F
#16
Alright, here's some pics. In short, I think it turned out perfect. The color is awesome and the chin spoiler completely transforms the front end. The side profile of the front end was in my opinion the worst angle on the car and with the spoiler it totally changes things. Almost unbelievable how cheap the chin spoiler was and I think it's as good looking as anything out there. I'm not a big fan of carbon fiber, so I'm really liking the painted look. I'll take some bright light pics of the color once there is some bright light

So, it turned out that I used a Toyota color 1G3 instead of SMG (noted earlier in the thread) becuase SMG has some blue in it in the sun. This color is pure dark grey with silver metallic only--no blue at all.
If if I were to do a diffuser, which I almost did, I would probably do it the same color, as it's pretty close to black. Right now all of the parts are the 1G3 (front lip, grill, emblems, rear trunk and rook spoiler) are 1G3 to keep things consistent.
Tomorrow is supposed to be sunny, so, Ill snap some close up pics then. But I agree that it looks better than the gloss black.

Looks good! I want to add a front lip like this when I get my bumper re-sprayed & clear-bra'd (hopefully before Lexus of Rockville meet). Is it the Bayson R? Where'd you get it painted? Thanks.

Thanks. Yeah, it's the Bayson and my friend who owns a body shop up here in Frederick did the paint and install of all the parts. Looking forward to the meet in Rockville and you can check it out in person. I'm looking forward to checking out your stance with the spacers and lowered.
