You want to paint it. vinyl wouldn't do that good at the bottom like that, IMO, as it would have a lot of abuse to hold up to.

There is too many odd curves in the bottom of the bumper for one to be made in vinyl.

If you want it, just have it painted. It will hold up much longer and look 10x better.

It's not a big deal really. Either you can do it or pay a shop to do it. Either way, it turns out looking badass.
