Do the front bumper black as well so it looks like an F1 car.

Joking aside, that actually looks pretty cool.

Id have to say that with the facelift hood, it looks pretty bad-***. Definately the rear deck-lid as well.

Stay with the hood and grille, less to repaint if you don't like the end result !

Anymore pictures of that car?

I think it'll come out nicely if it's done right.

If it were my car I would also do the roof to get that "pano" roof as it looks extremely hot on white and silver cars.
