I never liked the two-tone color scheme. It looks a lot better all one color (including the lower cladding pieces). The Silversport edition came in all silver or all black, and looks great. I have a silver RX300 and had all lower cladding and bumpers painted all silver rather than the original dark silver lower pieces. It looks great, but they did a lousy job on the front bumper, and it's now starting to peel in one spot where it gets pitted by road debris. Still it looks better all one color.

Good luck!

Thanks LA4Mead. It's a good idea to paint lower cladding also black. I will post the pics after paint. How is the quality of "ppg auto paint" and colour code for 2000 RX 300 ?
