curious as to how many turbo owners have sprayed their black factory chin spoilers to match exterior?

 

I did on my 03 TT. Looked much better. Going to Ruf on the 04 TT cab. I really dislike the Trubo front end because of this piece. It makes the front end look cheap to me. Painting it definitely helps.

 

Aero Kit comes sprayed.

 

The best thing to do is have it painted and then put some clear film over it. Mine has been OK for a few years with numerous minor scrapes. It's beginning to look like the spare, unpainted lip I bought 2 years ago and is hanging in my shed was some insurance that will go to waste. If anybody's interested ...

 

I painted it, along with the sides and rear bumper extension, on my '03.

 

i left mine black. my car is lowered though and scrapes pretty often no matter how hard i try not to. i'm far too lazy to have it repainted every year.

 

I put on a C4S spoiler and painted it to match (Gloss Black)

 

I put on the C4S spoiler as well. Much better in my opinion.

 

I've painted all bottom trims (4 sides) in matching polar. The problem is that valet guys always manage to phukk up the chinspoiler. The scrapes I'm ok with but its when they actually hit a concrete block or HEAVILY scrape the ground that the paint cracks due to the flexibility of the plastic. This might look a bit unsightly. Solution is to have a few extra painted spoilers that one rotates. Ive got three that I switch out every few months. When one is in bad shape I take it to my guy to have it refinished and repainted. Eventually I figure Ill have to throw it out due to too much ware. Besides the time and hassle it takes to change the spoilers it also gets expensive. On the other hand the car looks great. Me personally, I can't stand two tone cars.

 

Left black, scrapes too much, car is lowered.

 

I have the EVO CF splitter on mine.
