Another reason i think i should leave it un-painted is if i scrape it.. easy fix. My cars lowered so ground clearance is probably going to be an issue.

That was part of my reasoning. I just didn't feel like typing alot, ha. You can enjoy it as is for now b/c you could paint it anytime later on. AND these things are often scraped at some point. The paint will come in handy then.

The point was black would be a lot easier to touch up. Hell.. a sharpie would do. Smart a$$.

I saw a post a while back where some guy had found some rubber stripping at a department store to put along the edge of his chin... it looked awesome and pretected from scrapes.
It's probably lost forever now though.

The painted blue would look alot better on your car because it doesn't have any other flat black stuff... it has more of a flashy shiney look to it (which I like) and I think it would look better blue than flat black.

I just installed a CDC chin spoiler and had it painted to match, IMO it is the ONLY way to go....
