My friend wrapped his mrs nova sideskirts and although I really don't like carbon wrap they do look good against the pink so I'd imagine they'd look good against red and do you have a parts factor local to you? They do spray paint/masks/tape ect anything you'd need a lot cheaper than halfords

Dad gets trade price so can't really complain, I don't want to do the skirts and them look odd to the bumpers if that makes sense? Not the right weather/time to be getting the bumpers off and painting them
