keep the original bumpers(smoothed as in plastic primed gte bumpers) red or a darker grey/black. def keep the sideskirts dark coloured though.

Keep skirts the same colour as the bumpers, looks daft if they're grey and the bumpers are painted.

As for colour, I'd say do them all black. Works well with red.

I thought top spec Novas had colour coded bumpers and plastic grey skirts from the factory.

Indeed that is the case. GTE's have the bottome edge of the bumpers in grey which matches the skirts. GSi's are just ghey.
