Pic request: SGM with a performance trunk lip spoiler

I am having trouble deciding on whether or not to paint the CF trunk lip spoiler. Anyone have picture of either a painted or cf lip spoiler on the car?

Would you believe I don't have a good picture of the spoiler? I will have to take one this weekend.

Bottom line - I wouldn't paint it. The CF looks great and adds a nice accent. You would really tend not to notice it if you painted it SGM.

ptack,

Is that easy to install yourself, or did you have it done? It looks very nice.

It's easy to do yourself. See the DIY folder. I used the 3M body tape. Just try and get the tape to cover as much of the underside of the spoiler as possible. I also used a couple of soft weights to hold down the spoiler (especially the ends) overnight after I stuck it on.

errr, ah, curb rash on the rear wheel? Umm, I'm not admitting anything.
these wheels will soon be relegated to winter wheels. new shoes are coming.
