Seriously guys,black sounds great but after 2-3 month it would chip so bad it would look terrible again.
Maybe black plasti-dip would work?

Your car with the bumper in factory appearance is excellent. Your car is already "aggressive" looking with the stance, wheels and rear wing.

Please, reconsider the factory front bumper inserts. I think I can hear your car sobbing from here.

We always want to draw attention to our latest mod...heck, why do it if you can't see it. This is one case where you don't want to draw attention to it. You want to have to take a closer look to detect the mod. I'd paint it black, or better yet, go oem.

Okay everyone else has already covered that it's not a good look. I agree, but I'll try to throw in some constructive suggestions as well.

If your heart is set on this idea that you should at least do the center grill portion as well to match. It's kind of goofy having a black grill in the middle and some shiny bare metal ones on the sides. Also try having your side grills be more recessed into the bumper. Part of what is making it look odd is that it seems to stick out too much. Give some more space between the mesh and the front of the bumper if possible.
