if you have other CF pieces on your car then keep it. I had it CF because I had the CF hood and CF rear diffuser

Hmm the only thing I have CF other than the splitters, are my bmw emblems...might have to get more Cf!!!
If you like the CF splitter, maybe consider pairing it with a CF rear spoiler.

CF is dark enough to blend well with black. I'd skip the paint.
