$5 Front spoiler lip
[FONT="Arial Black"]
I would like some opinions: I currently have installed the infamous $5 front spoiler lip...its is in it's original color(faltish black). What would you "eye appeal" experts think of painting it Gloss Black? I have gloss black machined faced rims, gloss black slasher stripes, and gloss black/silver revised Crossfire Emblems. I think I want to keep it the black color instead of the car paint scheme(Blaze Red).Carl

Re: $5 Front spoiler lip
a) I don't think it would look right on an SRT as the bumper already has an extra lip
b) its he $5 lip because it was listed on ebay for the wrong price originally and after that first $5 purchase, the price was corrected
c) paint it to match the body color. it isn't a lip that is made for our car so its never going to look exactly right, especially when it stands out as a completely different color
