I am concerned about that too but from this image, as low res as it is, it looks like there's a bit of a sheen to it. A simple clear coat would really make that rear diffuser look a bit more upscale.

Well, coming from you that is a compliment, especially since it isn't AutoWeek but rather Automobile Magazine.

Design isn't just the rear end that you are so fixated on.

Was just comparing this to the current tail and wow, what a change. It took a serious pair to make such a drastic change.
