I'm thinking about painting this part of the lower bumper black. What do you think?

I've seen it done in the past and didn't care for it. Reminded me a bit of newer Avalon mouth

I'd suggest posting in the photoshop forum to have somebody mock it up for you to see if you like it - that's what's important. If you do, go for it!

It would compliment your grill nicely. Get a PS done first just to give you an idea.

Thank you! That link was helpful! I think it'll look good, I have my rear bumper insert black and license plate insert black, also my roof is black, so I'm thinking it'll look good!! Thank you

Try plastidip to see if you like it, doesn't take too much work or cost that much..
