Default Need GB Appearance Ideas

Hey everyone! I'm newly registered, but I've been checking out threads for a few months.

I picked up a gently used 2010 V6 Premium in January, and now I'm getting the Summer mod itch.

I can't decide what to do, so all opinions/ideas are welcome! Here are my thoughts:

1) Remove white stripe (it's chipping in spots)
2) Matte black painted spoiler
3) Matte black hood spears (?)
4) Matte black decklid panel
5) Black billet grille?
6) Smoke front/rear reflectors

I think I'll go with a hood kit w/spears in matte black:


+ matte black spoiler
+ matte black decklid
+ billet grille

Thoughts?

Black and GB seem to go well together. How about some black rims too? Like black saleens or FR500s?

I'll probably hold onto my stockers, unless I find a crazy deal/trade situation. I'm still undecided on the whole plan. Can't make my damn mind up.

Would be easier to match with black wheels if I get them I guess...

Black on GB looks good IMO. That's the direction I'm going with my car. I think the hood with spears kit would look good, not sure if I'm into the side stripes going on.

My car is in my sig, but needs to be updated. Currently have the Boss fascia and splitter on the front to add some aggressive tones and more black trim, it looks sweet with the black stripe. Eventually I might end up going with a black decklid panel. I think you're headed in the right direction though
