I feel like I should have gone for the gloss finished ones rather than textured finish...

I think body coloured would be the best option.

Just to qualify that. You're probably not going to be able to match the OEM bumper plastics, so matching paint blended in is the most consistent option imo.

Yeah I was thinking of prepping them and painting them satin black but I suspect it could be a faff with that textured finish.

I've also just found a seller on eBay who does replicas of the massive RSI C6 ones for a third of the price which are very tempting...

Given all the work that would have gone into that bonnet, it's a shame they didn't blend in, and repaint the scoop and vents.

I remember seen a couple of max power scoobys back in the day that had the scoops blended in, and it always looked so much cleaner.
