    paint everything that is supposed to be black, black. molding, parts of the mirrors, etc. and it will be nice. maybe some clear too. i like the color itself though. its the color of my valve cover. lol

    I don't think you should have painted the hood pins, if the spoiler was c/f I would have left if that way since you left the trunk c/f.. not a big fan of the color, but I do like the flatness of it.. good idea especially on it being different. . now we need one in a light flat blue and a pastel pink... bwahaha then you'd have easter EGgs

    Agreed with the painting of black pieces.

    One thing, though....why do you have hood pins? Later, QD.

    If you do the moldings and mirrors black it won't be bad at all. Just looks weird right now with no contrast.

    Get some trim paint. Paint ur moldings, side skirts, rear wing, and ur front lip black. I would leave the mirrors alone. Leave it flat. Thats gonna be the new trend soon. I have mine a semi gloss white now and i love it.

    And just my opinion, i would take off that si badge as well. Looks good tho bro.

    just alot more prep work to do now to paint it the right way. imo bad...but I have done the same thing in the past, just not so...bright colored. id say go silver w/ clearcoat hatches always look great in some sort of silver...just take your time and sand it completely down to origonal paint then buy real paint. or let me spray it for supplies+like 50 bucks it wont be over 250.00 to paint it the right way just takes some time to prep it right.
