Can see that, would look mint proper slammed but your bumpers are gonna be low anyways cause of the kit, would be a real shame to smack the on the floor and crack it.. I think it'll look fine on 40mm drop though.

fitted me boost gauge today as had some spare time and it lights up blue oh joy!
Looking good
Do you not find that when it's sunny, sorry, if it's ever sunny again! that the colour coding on the dash surround reflects on the inside of the screen? It just looks that way in the pic.

matching it, or a gloss black would look good, as there are other black parts on the car. Its my pet hate to see cars with bays that're the sam colour as they were before, with all scratches etc, but gloss black is a good nutral colour - would work well
