Hey Guys,

Im looking at color-matching some of my exterior parts. I was planning on the door-handles, Front Bumper pad, and Mirror Caps.

Any other suggestions? What about the front bumper lower-valance? I have seen some do this and others have not, but did everything else. Any thoughts / Opinions on this?
