sweet...........that pic just made my decision easier!
roche - Make that 2 of us in the minority!
I painted as a "stop-gap" measure to decrease the desire for Euro bumpers so I would have money for other mods. As time has gone by, I'm very happy I chose that route - if for no other reason, it makes my car "mine".
Also, don't let anyone else know, but silver cars with painted bumperettes are actually the fastest...

Keep em.
Im not a fan of body mods on 993's---RS this, RS that, Turbo this, Turbo that (on non-turbo that is) clone this, clone that, ect. This is bumperettes of course but and the end of the day, do whatever you want, not whatever someone says you should do.
Just dont paint them red!!

Thanks everyone!
I decided to keep them as they are. I appreciate all the opinions and recognize that the Euro plates really do look great in that area when the bumperettes are deleted.
My black center wheels, the black Carrera badge and the black trim on the car helps balance the black grill and the black bumperettes. IMHO
However, I really like the silver cars with the painted bumperettes...they look great...for one of those slow silver cars
I even considered getting black muffler tips, but I purchased the polished SS tips on FleeBay for $95 and I really like the bigger open look of the new tips.
Of course the real reason I'm leaving them black is because CACTUS said so! My Hero
