Anyone paint their CF rear diffuser? Considering 2 tone

Got my Vorsteiner, and considering either painting the entire thing, or doing a 2 tone job where the middle section is painted jet black to match my car, and leaving the outer area in bare carbon fiber. Anyone that has painted their diffuser care to post pics? Thanks!

On a black car, there wouldnt be any contrast, so it would be kind of pointless to paint anything in my opinion. If you car was white, then I could justify the 2-tone

I agree from afar there would be no contrast, but I see my car from close up. I enjoy walking up to my car in the parking lot and eyeing the small details.

Personal preference, I suppose!
I'm a detail person too, so I understand your thought process. I havent really seen anyone 2-tone a diffuser, so I'm curious how it looks!
