Default Black Rear Valance and Diffuser

Once again, I have painted a part of the car. Didn't like the fisher price look of the rear valance, so decided to darken it up a bit.

Something else I also decided to blacken up...

I was never a fan of the black Audi rings, especially on a black car. If it was white then maybe.

However I did buy a can of VHT night shades, thinking maybe of plasti dipping the rings with clear and then giving them some tint, nothing drastic though.
