Who in their right mind would buy this POS?
The same kind of people who buy color matched fenders. The same kind of people who paint their muffler. The same kind of people who are bothered when their plastic floor mats that protect their carpet get dirty.

I resemble that remark!

I DO have paint-to-match fenders, and I do put a rectangular carpeted mat over the carpeted and monogrammed stock mats (I spend a lot of time in places where there's a lot of pine sap and I hate getting it on my OEM carpeted mats) - but painting the muffler? Come on! Who does that? Has anyone really seen that?
As for the painted bumper cover (I too think that's what it is, versus painting the actual bumper - years ago you could buy such things for all kinds of vehicles) - I prefer some black trim, like the OEM steel bumpers.
There's a white Jeep in town here that has that painted bumper AND a hard spare tire cover also painted to match - it catches my attention but I won't do that.

That being said, years (OK, decades) ago, I had a new Dodge van that had white painted bumpers - first project I did was to paint those puppies the same color as the body of the van.

So basically you hate anyone who tries to keep their stuff nice because you didn't? lol.
