Mazdaspeed rear?

Hello guys and gals!


Im looking to get a mazdaspeed rear in the near future but I wanted to do something different rather than just paint it gunmetal grey.


Im going for a red/black theme on my car so its a given that the sides are gonna have a black accent lip on the bottom.


Now the rear is going to pose some questions.


Several variants come to mind... (see below)


i could also do it vice-versa

or should i just be boring and go all black, all red or *shudder* gunmetal

decisions decisions

IMO it depends where there is a line to mask.
it seems clear to change the colour around the exhausts. if this same lip line continues across the bumper, joining the left and right sides, then option 2 would work. if they don't and there is more continuity between the centre section and the original panel work, I'd go with option 1.
