Base Model Evo Mod

Ok, so this is sort of an Evo Mod idea for my 2LT, I want to paint the outlined area flat black, along with the grill and center bar of the main grill so that it all matches in the same color flat black.
What do you guys think about it? and can anyone photoshop it for me real quick?

Thanks guys!
Heres my ideas:

Option 1:


Option 2:


Heres one for photoshopping:


I think it will look good with the rest of my car:

I think option #2 wouldnt look too bad at all, expecially once your lowered. Keep us updated, i'd like to see it at leist photoshopped.

Just leave it alone or option 2 without the lower evo mod. Your gonna have a nice base when its lowered, its really clean now.

Thanks man, I appreciate it. - Maybe i'll try Plasti-dipping it and see how it looks, that way i can always wash it off or something.

I'd say black out the "vent" areas, including the side ones, and leave the rest of the fascia alone. I think the little black-outs will be more elegant looking.

This doesn't mean to go buy the SS Bumpers just so you can do an Evo Mod.

But you could do the VW GTI mod

Don't do this! If you're going to get after market body kit don't go with the SS.

Chill out. The 2LT's did not come with SS Bumpers someone who owned the car before you put them on.

2nd option would look a lot better, like said, maybe black out the vents on the sides and paint the grill black too but not the cross bar.
