Should I wrap my rear spoiler satin black or leave it chrome?

So I'm dropping off my car next week to get my Cusco front strut bar installed as well as some other minor things.

I was curious what your opinions are on weather or not I should wrap my rear trunk spoiler in satin black to match the car or keep it chrome to kind of go with the chrome theme I have around my midnight grill and ipl fog light inserts in the front.

I don't plan at all on wrapping the chrome inserts bc I really like how they look the way they are. I'm only asking in regards to my rear spoiler. Any opinions would be great!

Thanks everybody!

Kenny

Here's the spoiler...

Here's my front which is why I've kept my rear spoiler chrome. It all kind of meshes together. It looked better when I had my Stance sc5 wheels with the chrome lip on them but now I'm not sure anymore with these Vossen wheels and losing that chrome lip.

I think the chrome spoiler balances your front grill chrome accents. Your choice of course!

Agree w/ cutter, just the right amount of chrome (and you know how I feel about chrome, lol)

Yeah I'll join them and say it looks symmetrical with a bit in the front and back. Keep it as is!

I like it the way it is. Gives a taste of shiny on both ends that balances it all out.

I am inclined to agree with the others to keep it chrome. Your car falls in the 1% that pulls off the chrome spoiler nicely.

I think a tougher decision would be to keep chrome spoiler or swap out to the OEM painted spoiler.

Maybe in the future get a nice cf or kh3 spoiler. But right now your car looks clean!

Satin black would get my vote. I like the look of the spoiler body color.

If any G could pull off the paint-matched spoiler, its a black G. Looks killer.

I'm in the process of having my body shop sand and paint my blue slate.

So when I vote yes, am I voting 'yes you should wrap it' or 'yes you should leave it chrome'?
