NBP or WDP???
I would go with NBP. I think clean black cars look gorgeous and elegant, especially when tasefully modded.
And the mismatched paint/bumpers on a WDP TL would drive me absolutely crazy everytime I looked at it.

i have a nbp. it's the first and last black car i'll ever own lol. i guess you learn through experience, but i'm also lazy when i comes to washing the car.
WDP because Black only looks better on new cars, but after 3 years, White and its ability to look good after 5, or even 7 years makes it superior in almost every respect to NBP.
Look at the average 3G TL on the street. They are starting to look a bit dated, because the paint loses its luster. That effect is magnified in Black. But see a WDP on a 3G, it keeps looking good with hardly any aging.
Never have even flirted with looking at another TL's color after getting my WDP.
Maybe I'm color blind but I don't notice the mismatched bumpers

umm you are showing a 07-08 bumper..... Try looking at a bumper that has been out there for a little while. My 04 was night and day on the mismatched paint. Although i loved WDP, the bumpers drove me nuts!
proper wash techniques and polishing/waxing the car can make NBP look as good as the day you got it from the dealer, if not better.

I had both. my WDP was such a nicer looking car IMO. like somebody said, especially the WDP paint contrasting with the TL-S Tails/TL-S Wheels.
Nothing shines like a brand new black car, but WDP is brighter.
I love WDP so much, im willing to deal with bumper mismatches

NBP- scratches, swirl marks are more noticable....
WDP- hard to match paint when modding, gets really dirty really fast...
I say it's all about the interior.... I personally would go for the best looking interior because I think both colors are beautiful (AM is the best though).....
