definitely keep it white IMO but I just don't really like different color lips.. black hood/roof/trunk/windows all can look good, but I don't think the lip can but this is just my opinion, so do what you like

Personally I think the black lip will look a little tacky. But since your car isn't Moonlight White wouldn't you have to get it repainted regardless? Why not buy the black lip and see how it looks, if you don't like, color match it to IP.

I would have to agree man, keep the lip IP. If your still debating I think NoG35S had a good idea. Buy the black and if you do not like it color match.

It would look pretty good, if you had more pieces of black trim, like black side skirts, roof etc, but just 1 black piece up front is kinda weird, but maybe it'll look nice, i'm just trying to imagine it.

if you want it to look like a cheap POS junk yard hooptie, go for it. CF on white MIGHT look good, but black def won't--and at that, CF lips on white G's just don't seem like a good idea. the lines are all wrong.

Ick. Black side skirts and front lip on a white car? The black roof is hot, but the side skirts and front lip will look like you couldnt afford to paint them. To each his own, but really?

Ah.. I don't know why but I automatically assumed you had the sport bumper.

Get the IP lip for sure.
