    I would paint the front lip and the rear bumper add-ons white since you already have a black hood, roof, and trunk.

    The trunk and spoiler being completely black is a little much, but at least the paint is clean, shiny, and it still gives the black on white contrast.

    The front-lip spoiler and the rear-valence should DEFINITELY stay black.

    I think painting them white would be gay.

    What I'm saying is he should pick one color for the lip/side skirts/rear. The side skirts are currently white, so they either need to be black or the lip and rear add-ons need to be white.

    The wheels wouldn't be that bad if they were all one color.

    The "rear-valence" is two OEM optional stick-on valences. They should be paint matched to the car.

    I'm assuming the hood, hatch, & wing came from a FBP ITR? They should be painted white to match the car. The side molding should have been shaved since the entire car was painted anyways. The front lip would be cleaner white until it gets driven and covered in debri and paint chips lol! A good flexible paint and wax job will help that. The grill needs to be black.

    The wheels ruin the car. They're hideous. Go stock blades/swirlies or some used rota's for about the same price lol!

    It's a good start though!
