because it will look like ****. I have an s4 and an s5, both are white. s4 bumpers are boring and look like they come out of the bad part of the 80s. They need the black stripe to break up how boring the car looks. s5 bumpers are more dramatic and stylized to the car. The reason for slight body updates like bumpers and painted trim are to make the consumer feel like they are buying a "new model."
All im saying is dont age your car anymore than it is.
There used to be a pic of a white s4 with an s5 bumper on it and the trim was painted black. i personally think it was ugly. google image s4 with s5 bumper rx7. it should be like the fourth pic. the original must have been deleted because the pic is small.

depends how nice your car is. I think duplicolor makes a trim specific paint. If you have a daily beater type just lightly scuff it with a scotch bright and some comet until it isnt shiny anymore, mask it off and spray that ****. try to make it uniform.
Edit: this is what happens when you paint your s5 trim black:
