Painted inside of bumper. What do you think?

It was beautiful outside today, so I decided to change the look of my front end a little bit by painting the inside opening black. What do you guys think?

I love that look on 2g's. Sort of looks like the Evo X front end.

I think it would look even more awesome with a huge FMIC hiding behind that bumper.. .. Very nice job though! Probably end up doing that to mine when I get it painted now lol!
