Colour Matched Reverse parking sensor or not Black Obsidian?

Hey All,

Just wanted to make a poll on whether I should go colour match on the aftermarket parking sensors? The dealer wants $441.4CAD or $588.3CAD after taxes for factory paint match. This will be on a obsidian black g37~

Will the shiny black for extra $140 be worth it to make it look more seamless?

Ohhhhhh I get it now.....

He's talking about the parking sensors across the bumpers that aren't available on the G37's here in the US...

Just leave'em bro... Hardly anyone will notice it... Colormatch the grille instead... Looks a lot better IMO

get them painted at another time just in case you have some misfortune and have an accident or get them painted and get your grill painted at the same time

Buy a can of Duplicolor black and a can of clear coat and paint them yourself for about $15. Save $125. Send me $25 for the idea. Done.

would they have to remove the bumper to paint the sensors? or can they just masking tape it and paint the sensors?
