Default color change or match color?

Hey guys. I am having a hard time deciding whether I should repaint my car or just color match the front bumper. I attached a picture of the current color and what it looks like. I was planning on repainting the car black along with the front bumper. It is a Wings West Big Mouth style front bumper. My question is, "should I repaint the car or just match the front bumper?" In other words it's basically a preference question. Which do you think would look best.

Match it... the only color worth changing is the ugly teal (the light color teal) or maybe beige...

yeah, if your paint is still in good condition, just match the front bumper, and get all your moldings painted :thumbup:
