i think it matters on the color and if you paint match the moldings or not. if you paint the moldings which you should i would prolly paint the foglights but if not leave them gray.

and also try to find some cars that are white instead of black cause they are way too different of colors to try and decide. lol

IMO it really depends on the color of the car. On cars that are black or white, it looks better with the bezels painted. However in like EBP I think it looks best left unpainted.
