Default Nismo V2 Spoiler on Black - Carbon or Painted?

I'm undecided which type of Nismo V2 Spoiler to put on my black 350z. The car is virtually standard with the only planned future mods to be possibly Nismo front bumper and aftermarket wheels (probably some some of black wheels)

Not sure whether to pay the extra for the carbon wing version of the spoiler. Being black it will not be obvious its carbon, only those who have a good look will probably notice it which is sort of what I like the idea...but then I also think is it worth the extra cost to bother.
As far as I know its only the top of the wing which is carbon. Potentially I could carbon cover the top of the wing if I wanted (done it before for other ICE installs)

Thoughts??

Here is a pic of the fully painted version on a black car for reference. If anyone has a pic of a carbon one on black I would really like to see it.

I've got the carbon V1...mixed some black in with the clear coat so you can't tell its carbon till your standing close to it. I love it...best of both worlds IMO.

Sorry to bump the thread. Thats my car and its actually not fully painted black. Its a full CF spoiler that's partially painted. I painted everything but the top part.

If your Z is black, i would DEF go with the c/f accents on the V2. Black is the only color you can pull it off in w/o having many other c/f parts.

What kind of rims are those? They look like Works or Rota's but I know Works don't come in black.

+1, looks good with the blade only.

You will need to have a fair amount of CF already on the car if you want to leave it in full CF.

you can't tell it's CF unless you get really close. I have a CF v1 on my hatch and it blends right in. All depends on your personal preference- it's going to look black to everyone else unless they really pay attention.
