i'd leave the emblem chrome personally. i guess consider what you want your look to be. Very stealth? subtle? i think that tiny hint of color will give your car a nice look

Leave the front surface chrome but paint everything on the emblem behind that. I can take a picture of mine and show you if the shop gets it back to me soon enough.

Leave it Chrome.. if you don't like having it chrome then paint it later... Once you go black you can't go back.
