Do the silver/metal parts below the bumper look right? The one on the right is lower, maybe I'm parked on unloved ground?

I've never noticed this before. The ride last time I drove it felt fine.

Sorry, I noticed this as I was leaving for the day and didn't really have time to double check it.

Check it again on level ground.

Call me fussy but I hate that look. I paint all those undercarriage pieces that show up with flat black. It makes them disappear, and I think it looks much better.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one to want to paint those bars black. Anyone have a picture of having done that?

Are we talking about the aluminum control arms? Isn't it a bit of a flex to have that in this car class? Most cars would have it painted to protect the steel from rust. We don't need that.

Yes. I wasn't sure what they were called but I thought that's what they were.

Alternatively, paint them with marker paint orange and put some UV rock lights down there. I don't know if that would earn you a ticket but a cop would have a hell of a time trying to cite it.

Can you post a picture of the rear aluminum crossbars after you painted them black so I can see what that looks like? Thanks!
