Default Christmas gifts

So my mom let me order three parts for my car for christmas: a black pony package billet grill, black hood pins, and a chin spoiler. I am guessing that my dad either got me headlight splitters or red caliper covers with the tribar pony emblem. Looks like it will be a great Christmas and I cannot wait to install my new parts. My only question would be if the chin spoiler HAS to be painted (I know it is an option). I like the flat black unpainted look but it says the unpainted is gray primer. I am assuming that I will have to go over it with a flat black paint though.

Haha, cool stuff. If my parents were nicer, I would have asked for an 8.8 posi rear with 3.73s and the cobra flange from NTO. But instead, I get nothing from them. To them, paying my insurance bills is a good present, I guess.

What I did get was a job. So bring on the xcharger (in a year or 2 [6.5K a year -1200 insurence -1100 gas -500 maintanance -500 union dues = about 3200])

Yea I am happy to get some of the exterior mods out of the way, but I really wish I could afford to get some engine mods done. Even with a job its hard to afford when I have to pay for college.

Use a flat black on the chin spoiler. Looks good and when you brush a curb or speed bump with it you can just touch it up.

My pony got some cool things for xmas too.

2.5" dual exhaust, sequentials, Alpine 9884, Ford Racing fender cover, and a tribar badge for my grille
