Georgia Sun :-( need feedback

Well it seems my spoilers clear coat isn't as fortunate as the rest car! It is getting worse everyday while the georgia sun eats it away. I'm going to get it repainted but I can't decide, red/black? I have some old pics I photoshopped tell me what you think.






What do you think?? I kind of like the black look more. also my tails are now blacked out.

i always say, do what makes YOU happy. If you wanna paint your spoiler black, go ahead, it wouldn't look out of place. To each his own

If you did the Areo kit or somthing like it in black or carbon fiber the black wing would look good. if it's just rims and wing not my cup of tea.... but like rowteree said, do what you like.

Your exhaust shrouds are turning grey as well. Better take car of those quick.

exhaust shroud fix =

Back to Black OR Meguiar's NXT (purple spray), works wonders.

Have you considered lowering springs? I never realized how much they did for my car until I look at other stock rx8's lol. It would look good, look into it.
