Mach 1 chin spoiler

Ordering a Mach 1 chin spoiler any body have any pics of painted chin spoilers, thinking about painting it black to match the car.

It comes black. The problem with painting it....it is VERY flexable. The first time you hit a bug with it, the paint is going to crack and come off. I have seen a few painted, but they were a custom piece that was stiff as hell. The Ford Mach 1 version is too flimsy to paint.

The car in your profile pic is red...

Anyway, leave it the natural black. Like verti sez, you're going to need more flex-agent than paint for a flimsy plastic part like that. Besides, they look great in black against any color IMHO...

Thanks for the input, and the car is black on the lower half and orange on top.

Ah, now I see it. I thought that was ambient lighting

If you use the Ford spoiler, you will have to do a considerable amount of stretching and pulling on it to get it installed in the proper position. I doubt a coat of paint would survive that without cracking.

Leave it black. Painting it will only chip an flake off?
But will advise to bolt it on. I used 1/4" nuts an bolts with finder washers. Didn't want to loose it somewhere on the road or freeway? To pricey to spend $ an get another.
