Gloss black front bumper scoops on m3 rep bumper

Hey do you think wrapping the bottom of my m3 rep bumper in gloss black would look good? I saw the attached f80 with carbon fiber scoops and I like the look. I realize the m3 rep bumper has different proportions and might look dumb. Attached is my car and the f80 for comparison

I'd say go for it. Where's case Scenario, you just take it off

If you like it then go for it, but I'm not a fan of the look myself. Also your car is Mineral Grey, so would you even be able to really tell the difference?

Fair point. I may put the wrap on myself to see how it looks and I can always take it off if it looks stupid.

Getting the lower portion of the front bumper wrapped on Friday. I'll post pictures once it's done.

Yes do it - I think it'll look great! I have MG with all gloss black accents (front spoiler, rear diffuser, side blades, mirrors, grill, roof) and really like the subtle sporty look

Really happy with how the wrap turned out. It's honestly hard to capture in photos but here is one I took earlier today. Let me know what you think! I'll try to get some shots with better lighting.
