For reference. Your dealer, a vendor, take your pic.

I installed the same guards. Love them. Problem with painting them is when they do their job, (stop rocks from hitting panels) the paint will chip off and look bad.

And painting them actually makes them "stand out". The best looking splash guard is one you don't see. With black they almost disappear.

Here's an example. Mine has almost everything color matched though.
