If you plan on selling it at some point, it's going to be worth a lot more unpainted.
My personal preference, however, is painted, or painted with small unpainted carbon accents peeking through.

Depending on your car's color, unpainted looks pretty hot.

Exactly, it really depends on the color of the car. But on most cars, it looks better unpainted IMHO.
It looks great on Red, Yellow and White. Could go either way with Silver or Black. Light blue, I'd say paint, dark, I'd say not to.
Is it a stock replica for only weight savings? Or what design? Image or link?
