BBY just blacked out headlights and painted hood vent

Just finished blacking out my headlights and decided I might as well try to see how the hood vent looks painted. First tried it a light shade of blue, but it looked REALLY bad, so was about to paint it back to black but decided to check out red. Not really sure how I feel about it yet, but it takes like 5 mins to paint back. Only reason I was thinken red was cuz of the red brembos, but well see. Let me know what you guys think. (sorry for the crappy pics but it was about to get dark so I took them as soon as possible and it was off my phone).

You could try silver ala RalliArt piece except it'll be without the decal.

Man, when I purchased the car, I noticed that the previous owner tried to do something to the grill because the intercooler has a line of black paint, and the grill is black.....It looks pretty ridiculous haha
