Quick Question About Roof Spoiler With Black Roof

Hey, I'm thinking about getting a rear roof spoiler on my AW E90. I'm gonna black out my roof soon so I was wondering whether you guys think i should get a white spoiler to match with my car or a black one to flow with my roof...
Any thoughts? any pics of any of these scenarios?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That first question is answered...
Now do you think i should do the roof gloss black or matte black?

paint the roof spoiler whatever the color the roof is because if your car is white and your roof is black, the white roof spoiler will look very out of place. A black roof spoiler will look subtle and will flow more with that color scheme.

+1

I have sparkling graphite with CF roof overlay with painted SG roof spoiler. My color is subtle, but with white and black, too much contrast IMHO.

Paint the roof spoiler the color of the roof. Here is a cool shot of Nikeman's car with a black roof and roof spoiler:

Black or CF only, IMO.
