Default Poll: painted or unpainted
What do you guys think paint the lowers or not?
I would love to see what these look like with the flik justice 19s in anthricite and silver if anyone wants to photochop. I borrowd the top picture. The second is my car it is going in for body work on the 30th and I am trying to decide.

Default With a stock wheel/suspension setup, unpainted lowers look better, IMO.
...but once you upgrade, painted lowers are the way to go.

Paint! Some colors don't look bad with unpainted...this is not one of them.

Default If you plan on changing out the suspension, I'd do so before painting lowers...
unless you get a killer deal, but it's your call. It would look good either way anyhow.
