I would go back to black all around or paint the lip .... My Ek is all painted with an unpainted CF front lip. I like it on mine because the colour is yellow but on the silver I like all black or all body colour.

Yup i agree with all of the above comments, paint it.
It will give the car continuity rather than just a black front lip to break up the flow.

imo

Don't paint it. Because it sees lots of road debris and it is going to chip over time.

I agree with nova_dust. It looks better black then it will when it gets all chiped and beat up. If your going to paint it be ready to maintain it.
