Default The black bottom bumper peice for the A4, please help!!

I want to paint / replace the black plastic piece that is on the Silver A4's. I don't know why they put that black piece there it looks weird, i want it to match the rest of the body of the car, i have seen other colors of the same model without that half and half type paint haha, it seems like its only the silver ones. Please let me know how i can go about doing that, do they have it at audi dealership or is there any good way to paint it, i asked someone and they said it would cost a fortune just for that.. Please help thanks

go to a paint shop and tell them u want ur lowers painted. Should cost between 200 to 500 depending on shop. And they are left black like that cuz most roads in europe arent well paved and rocks will chip the paint so they leave it black.
