question about the front bumper

Why do some of the evo X's (WW for example) have a black bottom line, and some are the car color. I like the look where the whole front is black where it shows the intercooler but i see some where it is white along the bottom.

let me know if what i am trying to say isn't clear.

The Aero kit covers the black part with a paint matched lip. That is why you can't see the black. So, without the aero lip you will see the black.

Correct. You can add a strip of vinyl to the center to finish the black down, or mask off and plasti-dip that center portion.
