Anvil spoiler

Really looking at getting this spoiler...if wanting to paint it to match the car, should I get the fiberglass one or the carbon fiber one?
Also, called 1auto shop today and said they have the carbon fiber satin one in stock and ready to ship...anyone bought through them?

I bought directly through Anvil and chose CF because I wanted it exposed. If I were to paint it, I'd probably go with fiberglass unless I was serious about weight loss, which I doubt it even helps so I'd go with fiberglass if you're going to paint it.
Also CF is more expensive than fiberglass

Thinking of painting it as of now, but the satin one might still look good too...I do have satin front splitter and side rockers..

Honestly the body shop will prob charge some $$ on the fiberglass to make it look better and prep it. i even if you were planning on painting it i would get carbon fiber.. And then i would have a company Vinyl wrap it the color you want instead of paint so you can sell later. or if you change your mind

Yeah thats a really good idea.

The carbon fiber looks amazing in matte or gloss, I have a feeling you may just forgo the wrap once you see it in person. Here is mine in gloss:

Well called a few vinyl shops today and they all said they can't match the paint color of the car...still undecided which one to get...
