Artisan Spirits spoiler. Should I paint it black or body color (strat blue)?

[Optimusprimerib]

Hi, just got my Artisan Spirits black label spoiler, which comes unpainted white. Should I paint it semi-matte black to match the factory aero bits or strat blue to match body? Thank you in advance for replies.

Do whatever makes you happy.
My personal opinion, paint match gives a very nice OEM+ look.

I see people that install black and CF-colored parts and it looks unfinished, IMO. This car looks like it was a salvage rebuild and still needs paint. ?

I agree with this 100%. IMO, the hood's shape is not conducive to flowing body lines when replaced with a black CF version on any paint code... except black. Same thing with the fake side air intake doodads. The only exception to this I feel is a spoiler/wing/etc.

However, you do you people! That's just my opinion.

To me, the fenders are almost worse because it's got that weird square section.

THIS is terrible.

What are those 2 holes in the spoiler for?

What are those 2 holes in the spoiler for?

part of Artisan's manufacturing process of their FRP stuff.

the two holes don't go all the way through.

it's installed with 3M tape only.
