I say no, the Mach 1's pull it off because of the heritage, I bet a car like that gets more people asking if it came off a black car or if it got stolen than it was a good touch.

I could see maybe only painting the underneath and the back of the spoiler black, but not the top part...maybe?

Looks a lot better with the Berger panel, but I think I'd leave the spoiler red, and put the panel on instead.

Looks like ***..

The Mach 1 can pull it off bc it's raised off the car, it's not integrated into the body lines. That just looks like someone didn't get a chance to paint it yet. Maybe if the underside was black, and the pillars stayed red..I dunno..

i think it could look good as long as you paint those 2 pillars red to match the car, but leave the arch black, as well as have some sort of custom job done on top, that would make it flow with the car, as apposed to just dropping a black spoiler on and calling it a day.

I think i'd have to pass, only if the spoiler was seperated from the car could it work.

I think this looks pretty good, especially with the wheels and stripe.
