Blacked out without emblem looks good! Why did you get rid of your old front lip?

I think 3B blacked out with emblem looks the best. Just curious, what did you use to black it out. From your pics it looks almost smoked or like a lighter version of black pearl because these still some shininess to them, very cool effect.

I feel like it depends on what kind of set up you're gonna go with, classy vs. sporty?

Drove over a road kill during night time on the HWY.. Went through two lips already Can't invest into another authentic lip any more so went with a replica ..

I definitely like the original w/emblem ( option 1B). The kazz is a luxury and classy style grille IMO so I'd keep it that way, and the original looks the best in those terms.

Although it depends on the flow of your car and what color schemes you have going on there?
