Hood.. If you just get an SS spoiler you'll be missing the SS hood to match, so since you got a different spoiler already might as well get a hood and set yourself apart from the pack.

more people would notice an angry looking hood like a sunoco and it would seem like your going backwardd to sell the FD spoiler to get another spoiler instead of a hood which it needs more anyway
