Default Painted taillight cover, before/after

Im undecided if I like it or not, I do and dont... guess I'll wait a few days and see If I keep it or go back to black. All opinions are welcome.



Before



After (tried to get it from same angle, not too far off).

I think both look really nice. But I think from the back end, having the black looks better mainly because it flows off the tailgate having the rubber (Or whatever that it) Also being that it covers up a good bit of the actual light, having those blend in with the truck may not be the best idea?

Paint the bottom half that is along the plastic on the tailgate, and leave the top part white.
