need advice BAD!

ok fellas, I was thinkin about putting a roof and trunk spoiler on the car. Not sure if I def want to bc I think it flows smooth w/ out them. Question is, which color do I get for the roof wing? I have the black panoramic roof. Do you think a white one would look stupid or should I go black? Plz help!

For the roof black, it will flow nicely with your black roof and windows

I'd go with the black one. I've never seen a white one on the sv premium. However, i did see a silver wing on a silver sv premium and wasn't a huge fan.

saw that one too. I didnt think it was too bad, but a white roof wing btwn a black roof n black rear windshield may look stupid

Black roof spoiler for your black panoramic roof and a white trunk spoiler = CLEAN

Go with the black. A white one would totally throw off the looks

I can post a picture of my White SV Premium with a White Spoiler later on. I have actually seen them both ways, and prefer to have the white roof spoiler break up the black.

I will try and post tonight.

I was going to tell you the same thing that proy1458 just said. I have seen a white spoiler on a black roof and it was sweet! Seriously. Because it will look different. It stands out and really get more looks than the black roof spoiler, which would just flow as a OEM thing and would hardly be noticed.

The black roof spoiler would look like it was a OEM setup and it does look great! If you are in the corporate world, go this route. More subtle and professional.

The white roof spoiler is sexy and does get lots of heads turned. It looks like a mod on your car. If you have a more casual kind of job, where you don't have to necessaryly be too formal all day and you like your car to look sporty, go with white roof spoiler.

As for the trunk, only white is what you should put on there.

Case closed!

My advise i would get black for the roof lip. I have a white max myself and I bought it in white and it stood out to much. So I painted it black now it's on point. Only downer is from a distance u can't really notice it but up close it's insane.

Definitely go with pearl black. I'm guessing that your panoramic roof is pearl black too. You gotta make it flow man. That way it's clean.

If you throw flat black on a pearl black roof then it'll look like garbage. Seriously, you'll be getting called a ricer all day with that choice. Do yourself a favor and do it right the first time around. That way you won't have no regrets and think back like......WTF was I thinking?
