Doesn't do it for me. If you had black valences front and rear, then yes and maybe black sails panels.

Yep...if you look closely at the "before" photo you'll see that the side vents were quite restricted, more like a hood scoop directing the air in at right angles to the sheet metal behind the flares. I opened them up to aim the air back along the inside edge of the back wheels and also opened up the metal backing plates to help scoop the air into the rotors....here's a couple of pics....

I'm not a fan of the 916 nose but I think it looks much nicer with the black rockers as an accent!

I had a silver '75 with the 916 nose and black rockers. The black was carried around the bottom of the front bumper and the rear valence was also black (had stock rear bumper). Here is a photoshop of yours with the black added.
