None of the above. Leave a small strip and paint the rest like what EuroRev did with the white ACS splitters. I would provide a link, but I'm on my mobile phone.

As good as that looks, his car is black, so it would still be virtually unnoticeable!

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