Rooftop spoiler question

Hi guys, very interested in pulling the trigger in a rooftop spoiler from jbspeed. My question is what color? Since I have a pano roof, I was thinking black, but I could also go with the 755 steel grey or carbon fiber? Any input/opinion is greatly appreciated!!

Mine is the same as the car and in my opinion it looks best if it matches the car color.

Not the same car but, just to give the OP an idea...
imho, it just doesnt seem like its flowing from the roof especially if your windows are tinted.

Thanks beejAMG!! Yea I'm thinking I'm going black, it's not much different as the steel gray is dark but I like the fact that it expands the pano roof making it longer

no worries. or if you've got CF accents anywhere in the car, you can go for it but otherwise, id go for black.

I got mine from jbspeed as well. Quality is very good and he matches color really well. The only issue is that the corners don't stick and come off after a while. I have taken mine out and taped them three times in 15 months so far. I have followed every known recommendation as well. I don't know what else to do except gluing it down, should I glue it down? just think about that before you buy it.

AnirlnTexas, thanks for your input. You have the roof or truck spoiler or both? They both have issues?

Huiraym,

I have both. I never had any issues with the trunk spoiler only the roof since it sits on glass.

So I didn't buy from Jbspeed but from another supplier from the east coast and went with obsidian black to match the pano roof.... The results... Amazing!!! I added extra 3m double side tape for extra durability... Good thing is a sunny day here in good ol' Florida to help accelerate the setting process.
