Opinions on red rear bumper/diffuser accents?
I did it myself last summer with plasti dip. I like how it turned out. What do you guys think?

Not a big fan of it, just not in my taste. If it was a little cleaner along the edges it would look more natural to the car but it looks cheap up close. Cool to see someone do something different though. Remember, your car, your money, your decision.

I like the idea of it. Like jlugo said, cleaner edges would make a world of difference, but I do like it. It gives off a Nismo vibe. Like the red along the bottom of the Nismo Jukes.

Yeah that's what I was going for. And I understand why people wouldn't like it because I spent very little time on it and didn't really clean up the edges. I think it could look really cool on an aftermarket diffuser if done with precision. I'm dipping my car matte blue-purple and installing the (replica) NUR spec wing over the summer so it will probably be peeled by then haha. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

You could always keep the red and finish off the rear with something like this though!

It's not as bad as I was expecting when I opened the thread.
I think if it was done better, and the red tied in the tail lights and rear fog light, it would look better. |
