wow all you guys who are so passionately ripping bandit4 over not a very big deal need to jump onto some of those rice threads. I dont see any point in doing anything other than body color, what exactly were you thinking? Thats not at all a sarcastic comment i know it sounds like it. But have you seen one somewhere with a black spoiler like this?

Go with the body color for sure. Should look great when it is done. Good luck.

a little visual reference on what the black spoiler would look like.
Except he doesn't have the black roof and mirrors like I do.

Its getting painted black. And I should have the sonoco hood on next spring.

Are you talking about the sides that don't touch the quarter panels?
Yes, its suppose to be like that. 1 piece design, if it touched it would end up wearing away clear coat and probably paint.

yeah the sides have way to much of a gap for my personal taste in a spoiler but i'd say black spoiler to match your mirrors and hard top. then when you get the hood get the sides of the cowl done in black too. that would be sweet. just don't do ground effects like that other car. ugh

Well then if nothing else I now have an idea what my car is supposed to look like in the front, yours is about the same color as mine - BGM right?

Can't wait to get the body work done so I can get rid of this bra... but need the $$$ first, gahhh....
