Opinion on painting mastergrade trunk

Ok i been looking at the mastergrade trunk for awhile. I do love Carbon fiber but i hate it on white. I however do love how the trunk and spoiler are mold it into one and how big the spoiler look making it look aggressive. I was thinking of buying it fiberglass then painting it IP then rebadge all the stock badges back on
but i dont know what everyone thinks. YAY or NAy?

picture of the trunk if people dont know what im talking about

This is the best option for you. Get the fiber glass one and paint it. Personally I would go with the CF and leave it as is but my car is black.

Dont know how hard it would be, but i'd honestly tell you painting it the same color of the car will look sweet. Don't do that CF BS.

I would buy the carbon fiber trunk and paint it, but leave the underside and lower lip of the spoiler carbon

If you like it, DO IT!!! Definitely paint it though.

Personally, I don't like the Mastergrade truck. Damn spoiler looks huge and IMO doesn't flow well.

yeah i hate CF on white cars. i mean why buy a pearl car if you gonna put CF on it.

hmm blackjack i might agree with ya. Right now im just going to wait it out. If mastergrade build a thirdbrake light version then i will jump on it, but if not then i dont think im going to do it just because i love the thirdbrake light and i think it what makes my car look badass from behind at redlights with my taillight hahaha

Paint the trunk. Leave the CF spoiler alone.
