Carbon rear diffuser on Singapore Gray...? Yay or nay?

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Need a little input from my fellow forum members: I have a SG F10 M5 and really like the look of the carbon fiber rear diffuser, but I'm thinking it would hardly be visible on this color car. Has anyone seen one on a SG?

I can't find any pics, and I'm thinking that I know the reason why.

Help? Thanks in advance for your input.

It looks beautiful. It may not be as visible as other colors but you will definitely see the aggressiveness

Go with the OEM BMW center diffuser with the three fins.

What is the purpose? Aesthetics? I can't believe aerodynamics would be improved or even relevant under 155mph. Lots of $ and a 'de-installation' target for thieves who have an eBay account.

My SG with RW Carbon Fiber Center Diffuser. IMO, just the center looks best. Full CF diffuser is too much distraction if you like the OEM lines.

Same with the lip, I just went with the center lip. Clean and simple, keeping the OEM lines.
