Default Diffuser for CME

I recently got rid of my y-pipe , Flowmaster set up, to CME tip; and installed a x-pipe true dual with Moroso spiral flow mufflers. I love the new sound so much better, but was left with the opening on my CME valence. I would have removed the valence, but I like how the valence curves out the bottom of the bumper. So I made a diffuser from some aluminum and sheet metal from the local hardware store. I wish i would have taken pics of the process, but it turned into a PITA (lots of cutting and fitting). I attached the diffuser slats onto a piece of sheet metal that I extended from the opening to the gas tank shield. The diffuser is flush with the valence, just trying to decide now to leave it as is or paint it black. What do ya'll think?

Looks pretty slick. Dunno if you should paint them or not tho. Photoshop them black or have someone do it to see how they look. I like it tho
