BRZ WRB Spoiler Plastidip

I used @ShoGun 's method of just plastidipping the inside portion of the spoiler and leaving the wings blue. I also blacked out the emblems. Just wanted to post what it looks like in contrast with the blue color. Tell me what you think!

I personally don't like it, but its not my opinion that matters, is it?

I'd try dipping the whole spoiler. It looks odd with only the inside black. WRB doesn't play nice with flat black.

I was considering doing the entire spoiler once I got done with the inside, but wanted to get opinions on it. In all honesty, I might just leave the spoiler blue, for some reason that much black on a blue car looks strange. Thanks for the feedback!

Plastidip doesn't belong on a vehicle. You have a $30k sports car in perfect condition; leave it be.

If you were trying to make your car look worse then you did a good job.

Again, its to test out the look. I wanted to see what matte black accent did on a wrb brz. It can be taken off at any point, but your opinion is much appreciated

I actually think it looks decent.

Love these people on here hating on plasti dip. Had you said "painted my spoiler flat black" and left out the plasti dip part, no one would be able to tell the difference.

Also some of you think we're driving Ferraris over here, we drive cheap sports cars. Get over yourselves.

I would do the whole wing. Mine was dipped black before I got it painted.
