I think the blue looks good, breaks up the monotonous silver. Like my spoiler on my car, how gay would it look if the little wing was white.

I think repaint it blue, and do your brake calipers in the same blue. Then it won't stand out so much.

Each to their own. It doesn't stand out too much, not like a white door on a black car. I think black wing and silver everything else would be best though :)
But again, personal opinion.

I'm gonna say yes... Despite the crappy fake plastic carbon fiber, it actually looks pretty good. Bit rice, but still looks cool hey.

You couldn't ^

Not perfectly anyway. It's a crappy type of plastic, normal automotive paint like has been used to paint Tiddy's car won't bond to it. You need special plastic paint for it to bond, so unless Subaru (assuming it's still factory paint) makes the same paint code in a plastic paint, then you wouldn't get a paint that matches the rest of the car.

/long winded explanation.

You shouldn't mix different kinds of paint, they don't bond well chemically. You can give it a shot, but it's likely to stuff up and bubble or crack.

Check out my gauge holder in my dash, I stuffed that up. Used plastic paint for the base coat, then stinged out and used high temperature clear coat because I already had a can. It's bubbling and cracked now, gonna have to redo it :(

I do have a front lip but...
If i put it on then it catches the kerb when I roll it out of the shed, so I had to take it off.
sorting out some concrete to the shed soon :) so then i can put the lip back on.
But as soon as I upgrade to a different bumper i need a different lip.
aah sucks!

Is it?? When my car is visually perfect with the right ride height, I don't even know how I'll get it out of my garage!! I haven't even started thinking about speed bumps yet

Need awesome wheels fitment to make that look good ^

Speaking of, I saw a purple R32 GTST this morning, silver reflective decals all over it as well as various car club stickers, one huge antilag.com sticker across the back window. Had a badge on the back GTR Killer. Sounded like a very worked RB26, clearly had a 2-way diff and probably a twin or triple plate clutch. Was dumped on it's ass, had Meisters sticking a good 3inches out the guards. Apart from the cracked Vertex rear bar, the thing looked pretty awesome, serious piece of machinery hey.
