I would prefer to Paint because theres a shine to paint compared to plastidip.
You can get an aggressive front end by adding a front lip, making your grill surround black,Paint your headlight housing black, paint your foglight housing black.
If you really want to get aggressive you can get a CF hood too.

Add a front lip, get the F sport grille (I got mine without Lexus logo, think it looks nicer) black housings help top I guess, eyelids If your into them etc.. I'll post a picture of mine right now.
Here you go ^^^ Also I'm not a fan of plastidip on the grille. Just my opinion but I agree with what was said above about it being too flat and not shining. I do however have plastidip on my rear emblems to go with my black legacy plates. As well as black brakes, splitters, diffuser, etc..
In my opinion though the biggest difference comes from adding lips to the car front and rear (and eventually sides too). I went with a factory GFX replica and honestly think it looks way better than stock with no lip at all. I'm possibly going to switch up to a vertex front in the future. Have a look around and see what lips there are, you can't really go wrong with any of them. Just make sure it flows with the car though.. The main reason I got the lip I have now is because it was designed to go with the stock body of the car, and since I was stock at the time I bought it I figured it was the best decision. But as you can see, even with further modifications it still looks quite good in my opinion. Good luck
