My car is being prepared for a respray today. Should I colour code the side skirts or leave them in their original matt red form? would like to get some opinions.

Hi, I'm guessing yours is a Sport EVO then? If so I'd leave them factory matt, I prefer the glossy finish but it's part of the whole EVO 'thing'!

No its not a sport evo. Just a normal 215bhp model. The skirts are definitely matt red though!

Oh... then I'd have them done! Interesting that they are matt red though as mine are the same as the main bodywork.
