I think it will stand out a little too much...
White with black, the black takes a backseat.. its the opposite with your scheme...

A few more touchs of white and I think you might be able to pull it off! :)

i could never actually do that to a RA front..... just wanted to see how it would look, the Na nose lends itself to the lower "blackout" much better as the Ra has a full lip all the way along and wouldnt work.

Chrome would look better IMHO.

That is not hard, only costly. You can get plastic chromed. It requires a copper coat first before chroming.

I just chromed my bumper with vinyl. I purchased it from Sign Creations and it was quite flexible. Maybe purchase a bit and give it a go and see what it looks like.
