Default Carbon fibre spoiler

Hey, iv got a silver bug eye wrx, looking at getting a Sti spoiler, iv got a real love for carbon fibre lol, just wondering what people think of a carbon spoiler on a silver car, already got carbon scoop, carbon reflectors, tinted windows and graphite wheels. It would either look pretty good or really awful! Opinions?

Nick

Lets try again! I'm miles away this morning.

Carbon SPOILER on silver would look cool!

I also prefer the STi carbon spoilers when they are just the blade thats carbon. Painting the uprights ties them in on the car a lot better IMO

That's pretty much what I was thinking, so just the main part is carbon so it dosent overdo it. Might have the "SUBARU" lettering redone in carbon too

Make some bits mate, you can get all the bits off ebay then its just a case of making a mould or doing a wrap just make sure you order the clear resin lol
