Default Sti winglet help

CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE...... clear up for me whether the seal that runs along the inner/bumper edge of a set of genuine blobeye STI front winglets is colour coded to the winglet/car itself or is it black? I seeem to be seeing ones that are coded and ones that are in black on pictures. I have a genuine set to fit to mine once painted silver (currently black) but the seal will have to stay black,(as i dont think the paint will take to it) will this look right?
thanks guys

Cheers for the reply mate What's the coulor of your winglets? I'm starting to wonder if the pictures I've seen where the seal is coloured the same as the car have been painted to suit from a different colour (seals and all) sounds fussy but i do like to have it right

The rubber seal on the winglet where it meets the bumper is black on my crystal grey blob Sti.

Hope this helps

Mines a sort of white/translucent. It came with the replacement winglet I got from the Subaru dealer. It matches the original.
The car is a Wr1 in the pale blue.

Thanks lads. I'm wondering if it's a Later model blobeye feature (the colour coded seal) still waiting on a couple of dealers to get back to me. It seems the winglets may be out of production
