paint body kit black plastic trim?

You usually paint the flexible black plastic trim that runs along the tops as well, right? I went through a bunch of images but I can't tell if the thing is painted or just plain not there most of the time.

You mean the rubber moulding like in this picture?


No you don't paint that, you mask it off.

I know they make trim specific paint. But I've only seen it in black. I honestly think it would look odd.

Yes, that stuff. I'm getting the STI kit painted at the shop with a new front bumper and hood. Wasn't sure if that stuff was supposed to be painted too.
