Default What color do you like to paint on roof spoiler?

Now my new rear roof spoiler is coming soon from Poland.
i am very torn between highland green and dark gray.
The dark gray is same as roof and bumper and fender.
The highland green is body color.
Do you want to paint in shocking pink?

Here is my RS6 wing, I had it painted in my body color HIGHLAND GREEN, plus it looks elegant.
Where did you buy yours, a friend of mine wants to buy one today.

These are hard to find today.... try ebay.de for one but be prepared for the Germans to say they won't ship outside of Western Europe ...BTDT

Mattig.de used to make/carry them...I have no clue if they still do, the C5 chassis is old news now ! LOL

IMO I think they look best in whatever color your body is painted....but a roof colored one would look nice as well I'm sure.

Pleaee post if anyone finds one or several...a bunch of new owners I bet would jump all over them.

Yea, i had known your posting in past, and very longed about that!
It is really awesome and kool!
IMO there should be 2 kind of spoilers for C5 avant in the world.
The one is type of RS6 like yours made by Genuine(?), the other is the type which full covering the base plate of spoiler made by Zender(?).
If coming new spoiler is the example of former, i will paint it highland green, but in the latter case will be dark gray.
And no one doing dark gray in the world!
Still not arrived, and actually not sure which type is coming to my home.
Or how about shiny violet?

Do you happen to have the part number for yours from the RS6 avant?

I'm betting there are some left on Audi's shelves that they'd like to dump. If it is available www.speed-autoteile.com would ship worldwide, this I am sure of.

Default Painting unnecessary?

The fresh(?) roof spoiler had arrived from Poland in this morning.
The color is matte black!!
Material should be urethane.
Temporary unnecessary to paint it?
But surface looks a little dirty, must clean and buff it up later!
Is this really fresh and brand-new one???
Ok, i accept this quality, because this one was just $70 and before painting.

IMO, this is one of the smallest roof spoiler in the world!
It looks almost no change from before install it and actually alomost nothing!
This is just typical self-satisfaction.
Can not pay $700 for this.
$70 is suitable.
Thanx.

It looks very aerodynamic, is there a name or number on it?

How good is the quality and is it sturdy.
