Opinions on painted rear shrouds
So I got rear shrouds off of eBay, they are similar to the appearance package but aren't expensive and I have heard good reviews about them. I wasn't sure how I was going to paint them to match the black plastic parts on the back of our cars.
I don't have them on right now but I have them lined up without the screws in them.
What do you guys think about leaving them silver and the rest of the bumper the way it is. Refer to the picture for an idea. Again, I'm looking for opinions on whether or not to leave them like this.
One picture is of the old shrouds so you have something to compare it to

Do what makes YOU happy. People just want what's "different". When I had a C5 corvette, everyone wanted to paint the body color area around the exhaust black. So the C6 Vette came out with a black surround around the exhaust. You can guess.. All the "cool guys" started painting it body color. Jesus Christ. Lmao

Well for now the shrouds will stay that way until I either get money to repaint or learn to love them. Here is the front of the car with the lip and eyelids. I personally think the front looks incredible.
It won't be long until the front lip is ripped off because from the ground to the lip is about 4 inches

Well I know for a fact my car has been in a front end collision prior to me because the bumper has been repainted. So it's possible the gap is bigger than it should be. I have no clue how you guys could tell from the picture, but I guess that's why you guys are the pros when it come to the 8
