POLL: Painted or Not?

Do you guys think I should paint the inside of my cleared headlights titanium like the X5 pictured below. Please cover up the front bumper with your hand. It looks hideous!! But the rest looks pretty close to my X. After seeing toohotdoc's X with his painted I'm thinking about doing it even more now. My body guy will only charge me $30 to do it, after I open them of course. I tried to get the poll thingy to work. I guess it didn't. Let me know what you think. Rob
