Default Rear Bumper Color Poll?

The color of the rear bumper on my car came up for debate again this weekend...



Ben and I think it should be blue like the car and Chad, Jerry and the photographer think it looks better silver as is...



Debate either side below and vote in the poll please... we value your opinion! Afterall you picked the color on the car!

My being is the blue will get lost. But once again I am not a mono color type guy I like color differences on the car. In my opnion the silver ties in the silver wheels, and silver stripes on carbon. Come on guys vote silver!!!

I voted other, and will suggest smoothing the bumper and then getting it aluminum plated to match the wheel finish.

I agree, get it smooth and get it in some sort of satin brushed finish
