Question Painted fog light trim. Yes or no?

I just bought the oem fog light kit and HID setup to go with it. I already have the 10k headlights so i figured i would go with the 10k foglights as well. My ? is the black outer plastic trim the clips into the bumper is stock black, I was wondering if i should paint it ABP the same as my car. The job will cost me nothing as i work for a dealership and my painter paints anything i need 4 free. I think it would look alot better painted rather then the black. Just wanted 2 c what u all though about it before i brought it over 2 him .

It won't stop being hideous until you take those 10k bulbs out anyway, so go for it.

10k is the blue lights, looks good with the color of the car. U loose a lil of the brightness compared 2 the stock hid bulbs but at night everything lights up blue, street signs, reflectors in the road etc.. Really looks good at least 2 me. Thats y i went 2 the HID's 4 the fog light bulbs also.
