Going in for paint, need opinions...
#1
So I'll be taking the car in to finally get painted. I'm doing a full color change, going with Anthracite metallic from the MKIV Supra. I have matte black wheels and my calipers are bronze/gold. Where I need opinions are in the trim details. The grill is going matte black along with the tte lip and the rear Lexus emblem. Now the shop said they could matte the gloss black piece behind the passenger windows which is fine but they said they could black out the chrome trim around the windows and also delete the trim that goes around the car. Not too sure about that. Being that the headlights are chrome inside it'll look off I think. I'm thinking maybe just leaving the trim around the windows chrome but not sure about the trim around the car.....what do you guys think??? Here's s pic to reference. Thanks in advance!

I definitely wouldn't have them shave the trim, but I would have it done in matte black to match your wheels and grill.
Also, just a thought, I think painting the TTE lip matte black is going to make it look like you just stuck an unpainted one on there. Have you ever seen a TTE lip that was molded to the bumper? It looks really good. If you don't mold it, I would at least have it sprayed body color.
