Like the spoiler Rockford :thumbsup: I also like the colour coded m sport bumper. Some good ideas to think about.
I will probably try the spoiler in the spring and see how it looks.

No my wheels and mirror caps are gloss so it follows the theme.

Got to come our fighting here in defence. Pictures don't do it justice. Being orange and black there's a big colour contrast that comes into play that would not necessarily work on other cars with a slightly less distinct flavour or colour choice. Aside from white I don't think any other colour would work.

Rear valance in grey contrasts well with the white imo, I think it would look a bit "samey" all in one colour

Nice! Not a fan of body coloured valences personally. I can see why you wanted to break it up abit.
