Quick Question need opinions

Terrance28 · 06-03-2009, 05:10 PM

I just got my M3 spoiler it came in black. I test fitted it on the car and now kinda liking it the way it is. I was planning on painting it but let me hear what you guys think.

Terrance28 · 06-04-2009, 12:09 AM

Bump.

JayKay335i · 06-04-2009, 01:58 AM

Goes with the theme. Might as well keep it black. You can always eventually paint it red if you want.

mgl · 06-04-2009, 02:00 AM

i say paint it.

Terrance28 · 06-04-2009, 09:32 AM

Thanks.

flem · 06-04-2009, 10:22 AM

keep it black

tolkino · 06-04-2009, 11:10 AM

I'd keep it this way, it looks nice! Blacking-out your rear emblems can also be an option, they come in gloss black as well.

TT3 iN NyC · 06-04-2009, 11:17 AM

I say keep it black, just as another member said, it matches the theme of the car, black/red. Get some black/red emblems and you are good to go my friend!

Terrance28 · 06-04-2009, 12:21 PM

Anybody know where I can buy the red and black emblems for the wheels and trunk and hood?

tolkino · 06-04-2009, 01:20 PM

If you are talking about the roundels, I would keep them original. I was talking about the rear emblem (335i). If I were you i would replace the color matched grilles with gloss black, and get the rear emblem gloss black as well. I believe bimmian sells them!

Terrance28 · 06-04-2009, 02:12 PM

My grill is matte black on the inside and colormatched on the outside. I debadged the car so I don't have the 335i emblem anymore.

Craig@SupremePower · 06-04-2009, 02:25 PM

i'd have it painted red...looks odd to me!

Richwm · 06-04-2009, 02:31 PM

leave it black

bhb7654321 · 06-04-2009, 05:19 PM

If it was carbon fiber, I might keep it unpainted, but I think it will really flow better with the car if it is painted

ELITE_TRAYUNZE · 06-04-2009, 06:23 PM

Keep it black, make your fin black, make your exhaust tips black, get some CF mirrors, get some CF emblems, and call it a night.

Agreed

PepeRMZ · 06-04-2009, 11:16 PM

I would keep it black.....but that`s me...

SoFlaE92 · 06-05-2009, 10:59 AM

In the pics provided, I think it looks nice with your wheels in black. Do you have other exterior parts (kidney grille, lower grille, window trim) in black and pretty dark tint? If so, I'd say leave it black as you can always paint it later.

RedlineMotorworks · 06-05-2009, 06:48 PM

I think it looks pretty cool with the time attack M6 wheels.

If you had some sort of black diffuser on the back, it would look even better.

jho · 06-06-2009, 12:02 PM

Keep it black!

AlpineG05 · 06-06-2009, 12:32 PM

keep it black...but i would also tint your lights as well with black/red or black/white roundels thats only if i were you.

Yeah my grill inserts are black, the lower mesh is black, my tint is 5%, and my trim is black.
