paint it. if you want to have it black at sometime in the future just plastidip it. That way you can always take it off and have your diffuser color-matched still.

That's the best way to go just make sure to apply several coats of plasti dip to make it easier to remove if you ever choose to do so. Let us see the final product and how you feel about the paint as well as overall quality. I've been thinking about buying the same for my car but haven't found many detailed reviews though out the forums just vague ones or maybe I just haven't been searching properly.

Whats the point of getting the mtech rear to have a painted diffuser the same color may as well just keep the regular rear. The whole appeal of an mtech rear is the contrast in color gives it more of an aggressive look. With that being said plastidip is your friend and can always do that for quick change up.
. very good points u all made, at the end of it all it looks like the concensus agrees that it should have black diffuser painted or plastidip
