i like it... after i saw that other members pics i liked the look, but i looked into pricing and felt it cost too much for not that dramatic of a change in appearance... but for a subtle uptick in aggressive look on the front end, it helps... but at what cost ya know?

Couldn't someone just get CF or black vinyl wrap and do just the lower center portion for the same look? Should be able to do it for $50 or less, plus its not permanent if you change your mind down the road.

Who is the member(s) that has this done and additional pics? I want to check it out.

Hey whats up guys.. I actually am the one that has it done to my car..
Its the red c55.. i painted the front bumper as well as the back where the rdiffuser goes until i get the carbon fiber diffuser.
its def. worth doing it.
Makes your car look custom..
I actually sanded mine down and spray painted it myself.
Came out very nice. Glossy, looks as if it was profressionally painted.
Theres pictures on Mymbonline.com under painted bumper and grille.

Please do share some pics if you have it...


I'm not thinking about painting mine.. It would cost way too much and I may have to pay more if I want to go back to normal...

Thers a colored film (same as vinyl but higher quality?) I can purchase in Korea (Thers CF film / CF fabrics as well).. Cost about $40 to install.. I'll post some pics once I get it done.
