In Germany I painted my front and rear spoilers the same color as the car. Looks pretty good.
I just want a few opinions. Does it look good? Or should I keep my current spoilers the black that they are? Just Opinions.

Its your car what do you like my preference would be black but I. Not a fan of white.

But it's still cool!
 
I like it, any back pics?
I will have to look. The rear spoiler also painted. I was in Germany and the front bumper was bad chrome so I also painted it at the time I painted the car. I also painted a strip in Gold. Not factory but my design.
 
I love color keyed bumpers but not spoilers but like said, it's your car. My saying is "the only one I need to impress is myself".

I would not paint my rear spoiler black, white, red, blue, green, pink, yellow, brown, purple etc. because I wouldn't have a rear spoiler or a front spoiler for that matter.
 
just an opinion, not a critic:

I don't like wings anyway... but just those spoliers/wings being integral part of body lines, like the Judge's ones ( or the 71 Charger prototype ) or Ductails. But black or color ? depending. A Bodies, Challengers looks better in black, but 66/67 charger better in body color.

However, for the pedestal mounted rear wing... I think black looks better

Front... I like better in black at least for these bodies. The front one on the 71/72 GTX is so nicelly sharp, than the body color on it makes it look huge.

Driving the Autobahn in Germany, I took off the front spoilers and when hitting about 100 plus miles an hour, my front end lifted up with the air. It floated. Felt strange and maybe no so safe. Stopped and put the spoilers back on and continued with the trip. Held the front down and drove great. They work. Sorry you do not like them.

I don't race my 52 y/o Charger around where I need down force. I like my chances of not getting in wreck by keeping it under 100 mph.

I'm glad that you left out orange from the list.
