One of the best features of the rear is the diffuser, and it being black gives it a sportier look. Personally I'm not a fan of this

Looks ok but doesn't look right. Its usually black bkuz it makes it looked meaner and makes it stand out more. I prefer black

I actually don't think it looks bad at all. I agree the diffuser being a different color gives it a sportier look but this looks nice too. As long as you like it that's all that matters.

IMO i like it. It looks like you added a body kit to her.

can you give a little more angle instead of just dead straight shot? I think I like it, makes the rear-end a little bigger. If you don't like it, you could tint clear it a bit. Give it some time and side by side pic of unpainted diffuser.

To me it looks like your rear bumper was repainted and the painter didn't realize the diffuser was supposed to be a different color...

I think it looks good. Many people may think it looks funny because we already know the car came with it black, but if you haven't seen the car yet, one might think it was part of the original design.

I kinda like it too - it certainly makes the diffuser look like part of the body and makes the rear end stand out more. We'll done!

Looks nice! Would you post more pictures of your car from afar at different angles?
