Hi all, if you were getting your car painted blue, would you get the exterior door and bumper moldings painted the same colour, or just leave them black.

Just looking for opinions.

Yes, while having the moldings left black do look good with certain colors and give the retro look. But more often than not I like fcs one color.

I like the black better on the S4. However, if the paint shop isn't very good, then you may as well have them paint the moldings because they are going to partially paint it anyway by accident.
