I can't answer the first one, but for the second one I would say a dark grey lip kit. I just about had the whole forum thrown at me when I suggested putting a silver one on mine.

Call around for prices. I have shops that start out at 800 for a full spray to shops that will do a full spray for no less than 12k. You get what you pay for too.

Scratch this topic lol. I just bought a $120 Dark Gray lip kit haha, like 40 minutes after I posted this. I got it from my friend who never used it, nor did he ever take it out of the box. He took pictures of it on his phone and showed it too me. I hope i get it soon the only thing is im going to have to chop it off a bit cause of the SRT exhaust

I usually say Graphite. I just said Dark Grey above to avoid confusion.

So your friend had his painted then? Because they were never offered from Mopar in Graphite. Bright Silver, not Graphite though.

No, it's PDR, not Graphite. lol

Anyway, good call on the graphite. There is a bit of a problem with the rear lip going on an SRT-4 exhaust, though.

There are marks set in the lip for R/T/ACR dual exhaust cutouts. There is already a cut set inside one of the marked areas for the standard muffler outlet. The SRT-4s tips are farther apart than the R/Ts/ACRs, although I don't know how much farther. You could always just roll the bumper, though, and not have to worry about that little bit not being there.

You can't roll these bumpers...what are you talking about?

yea, don't put the lip and the srt exhaust together. I have seen it before and it looks like crap because it will be in the middle of the dividing line in the pic above.

what do you mean it would be in the middle of the dividing line?

In the second pic you see the line just to the left of the exhaust cut-out mark? Thats where the SRT tips come out. So they would be half in the section that a lot of people black out. It looks a bit strange even if the lip is painted one color.
