I say wrap it! It depends on how you wrap it though, I've seen some where the wrapping doesn't look too good. Here is mine before I did the Fake Sport bumper conversion.

It depends how you're going to wrap it. If you're going to vinyl wrap the front, you may need to black out the chrome too.

And this is a Photoshop of what it will look like when my F Sport bumper is done with paint. Painting instead of wrapping this time.
