SLP Spoiler, Color Match or Satin Black

Bought an SLP Spoiler off of a member here, Infinite-T - Awesome Guy!! Anyway, I'm torn between painting it SIM or doing a Satin Black. I have ZL1 sideskirts that I left unpainted, and an RPI splitter that is also black. A black spoiler could make for an interesting combo, or make the car look unfinished. Input please

It looks good black. It would also look good painted, so either way it's a win! I have the SLP high lip spoiler painted IBM from RPI design. They do excellent work.

Do you guys normally paint the slp lip black, or leave it untouched in its natural textured black form

The front lip usually is left black as it is textured. Others have painted theirs, and it looks great as well.

It is most definitely a win win SLP's build quality is great! And for the price, it was more than worth it. Would like to see photos of yours once it's installed. Make sure to post pics!

Your Lingenfelter looks awesome! Thanks for the pics, gives me a better idea of what it'll look like painted.

I did, and I have to say, it looks better color matched! I haven't had time to snap some pics of it, but hopefully tomorrow. I'll update this thread with some photos as soon as I can

Got any pics of the spoiler installed? Had been wondering how the SLP spoiler looks on IBM.

Could go either way... both look good. Make it your own and do what makes you happy. Try the flat for a while and if your don't like it have it painted body color.
