i've got my grille, top cap, and bottom valance painted to match and i haven't had a problem with it. alot of the durability has to do with how good the prep work was done too.

The bumper cap I got from SDPC for a little under $100 shipped. I think the dealer wanted around $120 or so. When I had mine painted, I got a smooth valance and had it painted too.
