Default Think Design Front Lip

Should I paint my think design front lip black or nebula gray? I wrapped it in gloss black just to get a preview so here's a few pictures along with pictures of it painted nebula gray. I was originally leaning towards black but now I'm thinking nebula gray may look nicer. Thanks.

With the Think Design lip I always thought it looked better the same color as the car so Nebula Gray in your case. It gives it a more complete look, as if the bumper came that way. Plus if you paint it nebula, you could always wrap it black later if you get tired of the gray haha.

I agree. Different color lips look good when it's clear that they were an afterthought and not OEM. The Think Design is so sleek that it looks like part of the factory bumper, and therefore looks better painted to match.

Agree with everyone. In this case, paint match is better.

Really like this front lip and would love to get one for my black 350. I visited the website but cannot for the life of me figure out how you ordered this? Did you go through a rep or anything? What was the price?

I'm thinking of getting a lexon carbon fiber lip instead so I may be selling my new think design lip. Pretty indecisive at the moment.. PM me if you're interested in the think design lip.

i got the Lexon Front Lip(Carbon Fiber) you won’t be disappointed. Mine is a 2016 model but nonetheless, you’ll be satisfied. Contact Josh at Meraki! That’s who I go through for everything.
