What do the OEM rear valances on the Nissans come with? Are they a matte finish? I like the look of whosurbudiee's ride!

If you decide to change your mind, here are pictures of gloss black vinyl overlay I put on my diffuser.

It'll look better without the tinted tails.

The Spoiler Depot custom lip spoiler is nice.

Paint would definitely look better. I didn't want to go through the hassle of sanding that area down and painting, priming, etc. Plus $30 for two gloss black overlays isn't bad at all either.
