Should i paint my iCarbon rear diffuser?
Looking for your opinion on whether or not i should have my icarbon rear diffuser painted shadowline. I have NO CF on my car and do NOT plan on adding anymore. Car is TiAg with the roof wrapped in shadowline higloss black. Been debating if the CF rear diffuser will add some character and blend well, or if i should go forward with painting it to match the shadowline trim.

Leave it CF!! Better resale value too if you end up deciding to sell the diffusor at a later date. I would just end up waiting to see if they end up coming out with just a fiberglass diffusor if you do end up wanting it painted shadowline. No reason to cover up the beautiful CF.
Everything on mine is shadowline except for my BMW performance lip spoiler. I don't think the CF stands out too much. Nice subtle touch. |

long story but incase you are wondering, they arent making those molds. That is what i was originally trying to order and they called me and gave me a wicked good price on the CF diffuser with an option to paint if i wanted at no cost. but anyway, i decided to stick with the CF look.
