Default Pic of AP1 rear bumper w painted plastic part

I was looking for a picture of this, I couldnt find any, sorry if this is a repost. I am considering painting the black plastic part of my AP1 rear bumper to match the color of the car. Does any one have any pictures of this? Any advice on how to do it? I might do this instead of buying an AP2 rear bumper

Doesn't even look all that good on a black car. Looks better as the plastic IMO.

Now someone does make a nice CF cover for that section (not a single exhaust cap, just a cover) which I think would look stellar.

yeah, painted is "eh", carbon fiber would be sweet. It gives it some definition there..

I like it painted. IMO it looks kinda cheap when its black.



I believe Night Rider's bumper is the same. I also know that Ill Roller had it painted too.
