Suggestion On Painting Front Bumper:Black GTS

Well the painting the black looks good for every color on the lancers except for black..so heres my problem the front of my bumper the lancer has a little chrome around the mitsu sign and the rest is black



now what i want to do is paint it the silverish color like it is on the black MRs like this

that would mean i also would have to paint my chrome trim.

any suggestions on how i would go about accomplishing this?

Can try using carbon fiber looking vinyl before sand/paint if you wanna see how the color contrast would look.

I recommend this seller if you're going to buy it from ebay:
