    Would look good both ways. If you're going to get the black wheels like you and I discussed, get the lip black. If you're not and just going to go with chrome... I say match it.

    If the wheels are anything but black or black with chrome lip, then you want it matched. Otherwise get it black.

    I would just stick with the black. Less of a hassle and it looks like black is your color theme anyway.

    I still say a black lip bro. Especially for foxing dings and nicks that will come on it. Even getting little tiny bottles of paint they use on model planes and cars will do. A little bottle of black and a little bottle of clear coat to fix a tiny lil dab on black. No one will notice. But color matching the maroon/red? Ehhhh... stick to black to match the wheels. You got black emblems, blacked out lights, tint... black FTW

    that spoiler in black on your car will look like you just stuck weather stripping on the trunk, color-match or do not do a spoiler.
