Wagon Spoiler Help Needed! To paint or not to paint?
Going to need alittle help here. Im slightly color blind, i believe the spoiler to be a very dark blue/green. However, from a distance it appears dark enough to blend in with the trim. I think it looks good that way. To save myself face, should I paint it black so it definatly matches the trim? Should I paint the spoiler white so it matches the body? Or should I just leave it as is??
Im kinda doubting my painting abilities. Im not sure if I can get the same shine as the subaru factory did. I'd rather not ruin it, but I dont want it to make my car look gay either

its super hard to paint match white (heh, stupid white car) and mismatched white would look mega dumb. Since the dark green is totally unnatural on that car, I vote black, you have black trim and black roofracks, it will look normal.

Make it fast, make it black...Along w/ the rest of the roof.
If you trim the trim down a little from the top on the sides of the window it'll fit better.

Or you could paint the whole roof white. It wouldn't have to be as close a match since it would be visually separated from the rest of the car by the windows.
