Deffo leave it as it is. The matt black of the lower section compliments the gloss parts perfectly. Looks Stunning.

Cheers for the advice fellas and seems everyone is of the same opinion so leave it i will! It is a Gt steve with obviously a few mods and a few more to come including passat rear lights and new wheels then maybe a custom leather trim still debating this one as my other car is possibly getting a big turbo kit fitted and a an lsd so we shall see!

I agree with the rest, leave the lower section matt as it balances the rear and shows off the exhausts.
