Since this has now become a bumperette thread, I thought I would toss in my opinion, backed by visual data.
For your consideration:
Unpainted
Painted
My preference is to see them painted on lighter-colored cars such as my arctic silver, but unpainted looks fine on dark colors. The term that comes to mind when I look at a light-colored car with painted bumperettes is "clean." I would also remind everyone that Porsche started painting bumperettes on the 987.
Also, the Boxster prototype didn't have anything to mar the clean rear bumper:
