CDC spoiler.....

So after seeing a few other F150's over the last few months with the CDC spoiler I decided to take the leap and order one for my truck since it can be had for $55 bucks and shipped for free from Stage3. But from the ones Ive seen in person and online, everyone always paints it body color and on the lighter colors it kinda sticks out like a sore thumb at certain angles. And with the cowl hood, body color grill, bumpers, and mirror caps....well I have a little too much silver. Ive been thinking about either painting or using vinyl to black out the sides of my cowl hood, and am wondering how it would look to just paint the spoiler flat/satin black to help break things up a bit. My wheels are charcoal grey and the tips on the new exhaust will be black so it will fall into the whole theme. So Im looking for some opinions here....body color or black spoiler? And btw, Im also planning on getting a Saleen grill to replace my body color h-bar grill so that will also add to the blacked out look.

Satin/flat black IMHO would look the best...kinda fades away from notice & keeps the bodylines strong!

Thanks for the opinions. Ive ran the ideas across some friends and it seems to be a 50/50 split on the two options. I talked to the shop that repaired my truck from the accident and he thinks that the matte/satin will look best and sportier. To go this route he's only gonna charge me 150 to prep, paint, and install the spoiler and to paint the stripes on the hood. Im gonna try to drop it off sometime this week or the next and get it done and I'll post some pics once its finished.

I do the stripes in vinyl in case you don't like it.
