Default Opinions wanted on WS6

How would it look to get the rear bumper painted on a T/A like the collectors edition. Instead of black, how do you think it would look painted silver, with all the other acents painted silver like the door logos and the the front bird on hte plate cover. Would this look like ****, or would it look bad ***.

I say don't do it. It just doesn't sound appealing.

They only did to try and create a distraction from that ugly SHADE of yellow. Seriously, I am not a huge fan of that or the Berger panel on camaros.

I persoanlly like the CE TA and have been planning on painting my rear bumper like that for some time now. I don't think any other color would work but black, except maybe a dark gray, IMO.

I think this was done on the Collector car to balance out the bright yellow with the black wheels and side mirrors. If your car is black I wouldn't change it. I've seen pics of grey rear bumpers on SOM cars and they look like diapers.

Dark grey looks good on the lower valance of the 97+ Grand Prix's. I think it would look good on the T/A's as well. I am planning on painting mine either a charcoal or graphite color when I get the vehicle painted.
