Just saw your brakes. They look cool as mate. I think the drums would look good done the same tbh especially with black wheels

Would be a shame if you colour coded the bumpers in my opinion. It's one thing about your car that seems to work really well.

I think you should do the whole of the bumpers anthracite or something along those lines where it's still shiny but has the poverty spec element

Agree with Darryl. Not necessarily anthracite though, a darker grey closer to the colour you have now would look awesome.
There was a Nova at PVS that had it done and it looked amazing.
