Mine is white the same as the car, not sure about doing it non-body colour TBH. It could look good if done well.

Never seen one not colour coded but as stated could look good, why not buy some cheap carbon fibre look sticky plastic and go for a carbon look.

Mine is red on red - see the avatar pic.
I have also seen black on red which looks fine too.
I think I just prefer red but your car will have faded and a newly painted red spoiler will stand out. A black one will but for hue reasons not saturation reasons.


ETA - ah, rear valance not hatch! In that case definitely colour match but watch the fading.

Go with color coded! It makes the car's lines look better!!
