Painter front lip spoiler
i just picked up a gt3tek front lip spoiler and the question is should I get it painted. I scratch the front lip now maybe once very 3 weeks due to curbs or angled parking garages. I see turbos and gt3's without painted front lips and they look fine. I am adding a front lip as I am adding a Getty wing on the rear that will painted.
Any opinions one way or the other
Thanks

On darker finishes you can likely leave it alone, assuming it's the usual black. I painted out all my lowers at delivery (my guys took 9 tweaks to get the silver right)....and I have a spare painted and ready at all times.
So if you scrape that frequently, get a backup if you paint, otherwise leave it black. Won't be too obvious on Atlas.

Went w/painted lip the first time. Looked great (same color-atlas gray). Lasted appx. 2000 miles. I think the scrapes show more on darker colors. When I replaced w/cup splitter, I left it black. Cover the scrape marks w/a black marker.
