Anyone with creativity welcome

Ok this is the deal.
I own a yellow ralliart. Its being boosted in july.
I have an accolade extreme v2 body kit.Its being prepared as well.
Its all goin on in july.
I was throwing around the ideal of painting the front bumper black.
Yes/no?
Now if i was to do this i was wanting your guys ideas on how to incorperate it with the rest of the car.
i was thinking of maybe fading it in the fender but my bud says that is gay an he only likes two tone. (hes the one painting it). If i were to do this i want it done with the transition done in the fender (minimal painting).
I have a cerious perf CF hood on it now.(without the vent)
I think it would look good but im trying to figure out a way to blend it in.
Any photochopping or graphics work would be helpfull.... (It has to be in the fender)
I will paypall the person who posts a good ideal that i go with with 10 dol.
Have at it fellas here are the pics of the kit.


I have the same hood
Pics of my car

(its lowered in the front btw)

oh god,
please dont...
that poor RA... what did it ever do to you to deserve that?

i know you just asked oppinion...
but

i think the ratio of black to yellow you have in the image above is
a good blend,
if anything, do the trunk and spoiler.

you dont want to over power the yellow with black,
if you get too much black.
also yellow is less expensive so you will save yourself a little bit of cash
staying with the yellow bumper.
this is my honest opinion.
to boost tho.

Im still 50/50 on the deal i was hoping to tone down the yellow with the black.

A few weeks back I was looking through a car magazine, maybe motortrend(?) dont really remember but I vividly remember an add on a page, for temporary paint. I think it was made by Dupont so the stuff has to work. ITs for temporary graphics. I think that I read that it can come off with one wash of your car. IF anybody knows what this is or has read about it let me know. Im gonna run by advance sometime and see if i can find it, but that may be the way to go, to see if you like something. I want to buy a can of it and just paint the stock RA lip black to see what it looks like, personally I think it would make the car look hot.

AS for your car, I think the carbon fiber hood makes it stand out, but dont do the whole bumper black, maybe just the piece below the opening, so it would look like it has fangs? just not the whole bumper. Other than that I think the car is gonna look good when your done, keep up the good work.
