[QUOTE=smoothLEX;3004100]Black will definitely blend, but silver might give it a nice contrast. QUOTE]

I think WAAAAAAAY too much contrast. it'll look better black. IMHO.

anyone whos smart enough to know the roof spoiler isnt a factory part will recognize it anyway!! You dont need to bring that much attention to it. Make it clean man..........clean!

Gotta do it black! So it'll look like an extension of the roof!
Btw, can you tell us how much painting your roof cost you? Looks HAWT!

Yea, I painted the roof spoiler & the front grill into black and it costs me $400 for painting only the roof itself.

It will look better if is painted BLACK, but the only problem is that no one would really notice it unless you pointed it out!!!
