High kick spoiler.....painted or CF?

Hey everyone, I've got a BSM car and don't have any carbon fiber parts on the car. My question is should I get a high kick spoiler that is color matched or go with cf? Does anyone have any pictures of high kicks on a black car? Thanks in advance!

Hard to ask a question that's purely subjective.

Paint it. CF looks weird on black cars. They're too close in color, no contrast. Plus from 15 feet away it'll look black anyways.

Get CF. How much is painted high kicks? Isnt it around same price?

Also you can get some money back later on when you sell your car.

CF looks good on any color cars IMO.

My car is also BSM. Plan to get quad CF tip exhaust with CF diffuser.

Shit, got impatient and decided to get it painted. Oh well, it was only $85. Lol decided to get matte black "335i" badge as well. Thought it would match the window trim and matte black kidneys .
