Hi..
my 91 NSX will need a new bumper cover, and while I am at it, I am thinking to re-paint the lower bumper skirt also...
I've never seen any other Berlina Black NSX beside mine..
my question is:
does the Lower bumper cover should be as glossy as the upper bumper cover?
mine seemed to be a bit different..
even the texture is different.

I checked the OEM sideskirt.. and it also looks and feel different.
(so does the rear valence)..

I am thinking to go with 02+ rear valence conversion, WW sideskirt, but OEM stock front..
should I tell the bodyshop to paint the lower parts as glossy as the body?
(or does anyone here knows the different between the glossy part and quite dull part is called?)

I think the lower parts have different texture and coloring to withstand the rocks and chips.. but.. well.. if I look at other colored NSX in pictures, it seemed that they are quite glossy on the lower parts..

Thanks in advance for everyone's help. :)

ps: can those with Berlina black post a close up pictures for the front bumper, side skirts, and rear valence?

Edit: now that I look at those lower parts, it seemed that it wasn't painted at all.. :S is this true?

I have a 96 BB and the rear stock undertray is an unpainted plastic ,the stock side skirts are painted just like the rest of the body,but many folks paint the rear to match thier body color if not black.
