Really cant go wrong either way really.

One thing you might want to keep in mind is that spoiler itself is not really textured correctly to start in order to have a nice smooth paint finish. You might need to have some extra prep work done to have it come out right if you paint it.

I'm getting ready to pick up a white Dan Gurney edition with the same spoiler with the spoiler painted Vista Blue and that's the one thing I don't like about the car. The texture of the spoiler causes the paint to look a little cheesy.

You may want to get a professional opinion from your paint shop before you set your mind one way or the other.

The black looks good if you have other pieces black on the car(spoiler, louvers, etc). If not, paint it. It'll look smoother.

i think it would look good either way but i think the black would look sweet with your color and the way you have the black on the truck
