Did I go too far?

Did I go too far?
I put the strip on the side of the car and it was a good improvement to decorate in the rather loud wing. After looking at it a while, I decided to extend the stripe to the front and rear bumper similar to the way the GT3 RS stripe goes into the front and back bumper with a fade pattern.
On the front bumper, the stripe is inspired by the shape of the front of the RS wing tip, and for the rear bumper, it's tapered like the rear of the wing tip.
What are your thoughts? It's easy to remove, and it's easy to ask the sign shop to change the shape if anyone can offer better suggestions?

Looks weird on the front due to the line (crease) on the lower bumper which is at a different angle to the sticker....makes the sticker look like it is going up when in actuality it is probably level...to me it looks awkward so I'd take the end pieces off.

+1...keep it on awhile. At least you have something new to look at. But fly996 has a point on that crease and the stripe not blending.

It's the MA Shaw GT3RS replica in carbon fiber with a clear coat paint on the blade and wing tips and a fiberglass insert base.
Here's a picture from the back.

Yes, I agree that it does look like the front is going up. Believe it or not, it's actually going down a little bit relative to the ground because I anticipated this problem. But you really don't know what you have until it's too late.
The problem is not only that crease, but the bumper curving inward as it goes down. Now I made the problem even worse since those pictures because I changed the C4s lip for the Turbo lip. So I am most likely to get those remade and put them back on with a much steeper downward angle.
The Turbo lip seems to work much better with the wing than the C4s version since it has a similar shape on the edges to the RS wing tips. My C4s one was pretty banged up too, so it's nice to have a fresh one on there too.
