Black bumpa?

[SSE30]

I had to get a new bumper, so I sourced one from an alpineweiß at the J-Yard. Proceeded to paint it black . All my non-BMW friends say to keep it black .

Yay or Nay , you say?



EDIT:

I decided to paint it, and BOOM, aesthetics have been upgraded.

I say paint it body color, it just looks like a huge belt line when it is all black.

This is what Im leaning towards .

I've never liked that look. I would go body color, but it isn't terrible the way it is.

think of it this way:

when you wear a black belt, you wear black shoes. Your car has a black belt and black tires. So just say its stylin.

Thats an awesome way to look at it. This is also why I love r3v , because everyone has different insight.

put a priority on that valence... with that valence though, paint it body color. black bumper just makes that front end look grimier. but do you want really.

Black bumpers can look good. But not in this case. Maybe if the kidneys was chrome and a lip was on it with some fogs. Then it may look fine.
