Anyone ever paint...

the in sides of their EVO IX wing black?

I need to get the top of my wing recleared. Some punks keyed it.

So since I have flat black wheels, hopefully with get a CF lip soon and black vortex generator, I was thinking about painting the inside of the spoiler's sides black. Sorta like the Evo VIII showed the CF part.

If any one has done this can you post some pics?

Thanks

That picture is of an VIII wing, you can tell because of the rivets on the inside.

the whole wing on an 8 is CF including the sides. I stripped mine and now have a complete CF wing. Painting the whole thing with urethane keeps it nice and shiny.

Many evo owners are taking the paint off of their wings to show all the carbon fiber on their wing. It really looks nice if you know what your doing.
