I thought about this, problem with having the rear done but leaving the sides is it looks odd beccause the line follows through the rear wheel to meet the rear bumper and would just look strange if one was coded but not the other.

Mine has only the rear bumper done (by previous owner). A few pics in my welcome thread:

I am planning on getting the side skirts and front splitter done when I get a chance as I think it looks better with all painted.

Also the mud flaps have been taken off now as I didn't like them either :happy2:

Ended up getting the lower rear fully painted, side skirts painted and the front outer valance painted, leaving just the front inner valance unpainted.
Really happy with how it looks again. Infact, ive got it up for sale but im having second thoughts about selling it now as it really is  in mint condition. I was only selling it as ive got a little bored and fancied a change, but now??????

Picked mine up today and really happy with it, just went for the rear bumper and left the arch around the exhaust. Looks really good. Will try and upload some pics :driver:
