what color should I paint?
 
good evening guys,quick question. today I bought IS spoilers (front + rear) tomorrow I will paint them in black,but should I leave matte detail on which are parking sensors in the dark grey matte as it is OR should I paint it also in black to shape with color of car and front spoiler?

p.s maybe someone can photoshop 4.8is black one front view to be all black? thanks in advance anyway :)

Paint it black to match.

This is how an earlier 4.6 looks. As I understand you are thinking of painting some or all of the bumper matt black. A way to see what it looks like would be to use plasti-coat spray. The possibility it will look good is based a lot on the color of your X. Use of black anything tends to look good on white, black and gray as they blend or contrast well.

its black, tree reflections make it look green (but that's cuz it is soooooo clean)

Ricky Bobby is correct ( and thank you) It is Safire black which has a silver metallic.
