I am currently getting the m-tech front and rear installed, and I'm looking into the Hamann front lip. Now, I'm on the fence as to which color I should paint it. My car is Alpine White, and I'm painting the rear diffuser gloss black. Should I do the same to the lip, or should I color match it?

I'd really appreciate everyones input! Thanks !

Don't like the matte black look on the diffuser and lip? I have the matte black rear diffuser and when/if I do get the front lip, I am definitely getting it painted matte black as well. Gives it better contrast and meaner look I think. Also much easier on the looks after a few scrapes which will be inevitable on certain occasions.

I was gonna go matte, but decided to go gloss because i felt it looked cleaner. Any one got pics of the lip painted in either or?
