New spoiler, need advice!

Still debating on whether or not to get it colormatched or get it colormatched, your inputs are valued and thanks for your time ft86club

Apparently I am a terrible photographer and couldn't get a good angle (straight on from the back)





The fitment is obviously off as I just threw it on there to take pictures

Here's two opinions.

My Father: Color match it. It looks cheap even if painted black on a white car.

My opinion: I like the white and black theme. Kind of what we called the "Storm Trooper" look in the Silverado's that did the white truck and black flares and such.

Yeah I'm a fan of the Storm-trooper look too, I dunno if it would take away from the spoiler/ my black and white theme if colormatched, going to find a bodyshop to go to on friday and take it in so I need to make up my mind stat haha, it took me like 3 days to decide between black vs white when I got the car too.....

I'd say color match. It looks plasticy by itself. I'd may leave it bare if it was CF, but Im not a huge fan of bare plastics. Post pics when you finish it! If you decide to!
