Should I paint this thing or not?

[DuSh]

We peasants with non M-Sport bumper are left in void. No cookies for us, so I'm trying to custom rice it kinda. At least do something to improve the looks. My eyes are tired after searching for way to improve non M-Sport front look. Really need fresh unbiased opinion if painted in white middle lower plastic thingy changes looks a bit towards better overall or no?

I think it would look good I would go for it!

"I'm trying to custom rice it kinda" Not sure what language that is, but LOL!

I'd say leave it black. I think it looks more aggressive as is. Black kidney grills will also give it a more aggressive look.

Haha you guys don't want to go easy on me - split opinions and votes

[Dirty Cash]

Don't do it!!! LOL!!! Seriously though, I wouldn't. Looks fine just the way it is.

Sorry, but I like it white

If your changing your grill to the all black grill then keep it black. IMO

Just change black grills and black out the plastic pieces. It will look better than painting the black piece white.

Black grills and blacked out the lower side trims. I'll eventually black out the middle area you want to do in white.

Spray it with white plasti dip. If you don't like it, then you can peel it off.

Thanks everyone for your input and vote! I decided to not paint it. It does changes the looks when painted for better imho, but I decided to black out other trim pieces as was suggested and in that case I might as well stay black

It's really not easy to hit the nail in terms of looks for non M-Sport and it's interesting that we are majority and yet there are very few threads about exterior for non M-Sport on forum

I'll keep you guys updated with my exterior as soon as I finish mods

Thank you again

Painting it white looks good and completes the front bumper cover. Trem Clad has Plasti Dip white at Home Depot
