anyone has a body color painted M performance lip and diffuser?

just curious how it looks if it's better to have it color painted or black. If black, better matte or gloss black?

I searched, but can't find any

I think it looks better body colored so it doesn't appear "tacked on". But yeah, almost everyone keeps it black.

thinking about having it body colored, but as I searched online, haven't find any really.

this is the first time i see it. it looks alright. but can't see it from front angle and rear angle

or how about just the left and right is painted, but the flat bottom keep it black (like attached picture) along with the rear diffuser to keep it race

I agree it definitely looks better painted, but tbh, I just dont like the front diffuser. It makes the car look to boy racer / ricer to me for some reason

I always liked the idea of keeping the splitters matte black and painting the lower full lip portion body colored.
