Question I want a front spoiler, what option is best?

I have a Sebring Silver AP2, this spoiler isn’t available. I am either going to buy a different color and have it painted or I may buy a carbon fiber spoiler. If I bought CF I would need a few other pieces to make it look good.

Has anyone bought the wrong color OEM spoiler/lip and had it painted?

Thank you!!!

Since you’re already going to paint it, why not just go with a CR lip?

For some reason I just don’t like the look of the CR lip, I think the end stick out too much. Maybe I just need to get used to it, but I like the OEM one better right now.

Can't go wrong with the oem style lip. There are decent replicas available on ebay. Much cheaper than buying a used, painted oem part you'll have to repaint anyway.

BaysonR is an ebay seller with a good rep for this part...

I like the OEM one.
I'd get one of those and paint it.

Just get the OEM rep from Bayson R. I got it for mine and had mine painted gloss black. I havnt installed it yet as i'm waiting for my weatherstripping, but Bayson R is known for their almost OEM like fitment. And for 60$ you cant really go wrong.

I bought a white OEM one and painted it silver. cost me under $100 to do it myself. Cheaper than buying a new OEM...if you can fine one.

The guy that did mine did it for 150$. I got the Lip from a friend for 20$ so 170$ for something that looks 100% OEM. I decided not to color match as i like the black accent in case you were wondering.

Thanks all, I think I’m going to buy OEM and have it painted. I can get OEM for $350 or so then paint $150 or so, that’s not too bad.
