and since noone has said anything..
Painting your sideskirts is generally a bad idea on a daily driver, if its not a very dark color.
If your repainting it Milano Red (which is a beautiful color, and my car was that color stock

) Then I wouldnt paint the sides, because youknow whats gonna happend as soon as the sides get hit with a pebble or something from the road, that black will shine right through as clearly as day
