Saw the carbon spoiler & front splitter on a black coupe and looked great but not sure about the carbon spoiler on white, to paint or not to paint???
Keeping the front splitter carbon :happy2:

Don't you dare :surprised:.
Leave it Carbon. Looks so much better contrasting with the White Paint :happy2:
You need to slap whoever fitted it though. They have only used sellotape. :evilgrin:
-
It is German sellotape, should be ok to 150mph :signLOL:

But your limited to 155mph :laugh:
Seriously though keep it Black :happy2:
-
keep it black :happy2: (but maybe some white vinyl added in some way might improve things :evilgrin:)

To be honest, I'd paint it!
From a distance it justs looks like you have an unpainted black plastic spoiler.
Out of interest, where did you get it? I'm looking for a similar rear spoiler for my 330.
:drinking:
-
Keep it carbon - you know you want to anyway :laugh:
-
KEEP IT BLACK! :drool: :drool:
-
leave it alone :drool:
-
I think it looks cool.
Great contrast :happy2:
-
100% leave it as it is, love the contrast :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool:
-
I normally love the carbon look, but on that I think it would look more classy pianted.
If it was the ED30 then most certainly leave it exposed.
-
The more I look at it the more I like it in carbon :happy2: thanks guys.

I would paint it. But still leave the weave visible, I think too much if left unpainted.

Leave it, if you paint it you should just have bought a £50 one :happy2:
