The red starter button looks way better with the black ring surrounding it. Good call!

I kinda like the black hood vents better than the red ones.

I'm torn between going gloss or matte. I'm going to try gloss black tomorrow and see which one I like better. Testing the waters to see if I can handle a full wrap eventually.

I can see Matte Black looking nice since the grill on the vents is a matte finish but gloss black with gloss black roof and mirror caps will look nice unless you have carbon roof

I have the carbon roof but my side gills, emblem and front grill are gloss. Along with the usual gloss trim. But I can agree that gloss black might be too many different things going on in a small area. I appreciate the feedback.

Thx! Slimer! Maybe that's what I should put on my license plate. It is a unique color for sure.
I'm in Eastern Oregon, about 50 miles from Boise Idaho.

Going to be in Portland in a few days. Boise is a bit of a jaunt though. Would love to see the car in person but I have burned all of the dead dinosaurs already!!
