I have recently ordered the M tech kit from Evan at Tischer. It is being shipped directly to the shop for install and paint. What I am struggling with is whether to paint the rear diffuser matte black or leave it Titanium silver like the rest of the car. I am leaning toward a classier look with the all sliver and an upgrade to style 172 wheels from the 124's. But for some reason I keep going back to the matte black diffuser with the style 166 wheels. HELP!

I would like to get some feedback from th fine people of this forum.

Thanks,
Sparks

leave it matte black

it will add the needed contrast from too much silver plus if you get black wheels eventually itll look awesome
