    Wondering if anyone has picks of their bumpers painted in the section between the exhaust pipes where it says Pontiac, to match their main car color? Or how this will look? I'm putting on a new bumper soon and contemplating having it all painted instead of having the two tone! Please post pix!!
    Thanks

    I think most people (myself included) just buy decals in the color they want. I have black car with red front and rear lower facias...I ordered black reflective decals for mine...been very happy with them, had them for last several years.

    i think he is talking about the rear bumper itself, and not the inlay.

    like mine is red/silver. for now im planning on going all red

    i think they grey looks good against the body color. if it is matched, then it looks like an SE and just doesnt look as good to me. it looks better with some contrasting color.

    i am debating painting mine black.

    Absolutely ugly having it paint matched to the car.
