Black or Carbon roof spoiler on white/pano?
I've read enough threads about the roof/trunk spoiler bash. But that's in another thread please...

I'm WILL be getting a roof spoiler in conjunction to the trunk spoiler that I just ordered. My original thoughts was CF roof spoiler but considering that the Pano Roof of gloss black, I think a gloss black that matches the roof might blend better. Just wanna get some opinion and pictures if possible.

I think out of the options you gave, I'd only go with a gloss black. The rear line looks so smooth that I wouldn't want to break it up with another color.

If I did mine in gloss black, you promise not to do yours in carbon fiber? HAHAHA then we'd really have twins.

I make no promises lol - I don't think I'll ever get one but if I did it'd be a gloss black, I got my carbon fiber fix with my other cars already

Gloss black will look good. Unless you're doing other parts in cf?

The roof spoiler will probably be my last addition to the car. I wanna keep it simple but don't want it to look like every other S550 out there. The amber side markers might even stay, it's not bothering me too much.

I'm probably not gonna use a MB black but instead any standard black/gloss and call it it.
