IMO black, if it was a matte colour, would make it look cheap and unfinished.

Nice shiny black would probably look out of place also though.

i just love the look of the p1 splitter

i was looking at the V lip but couldnt find anywhere to buy it.

i had the splitter colour coded before it looks a lot of blue going on.

thought the black might split it up abit

New V6 lip arrived this morning, going to swap my P1 splitter for it for this reason & because P1 splitters seem quite common now compared with V6 lips

Lip needs to match your skirts I reckon Darc...if your skirts are colour coded then colour code the splitter...if they are not you will need an original pu splitter to match the unpainted finish
