Talking new wing for my FD

It's on the way and should be installed in time for the next race! What color should I paint it?

Honestly paint it flat black. That away it's more stealthy when you go to the races at night, it'll help make it more "stealth" and hopefully the ricers won't see your big hp making secret.

I am going to have to bite the bullet and go with coilovers and higher spring rates. The car now tries to run on the bumpstops with all the downforce. It sure heats the race tires quickly though!
