I like the two-tone black and pearl combination best WITHOUT the spoiler. I think the back end is two short to add a spoiler to the two tone trunk area. Seems like there is excess busy-ness when compared to the sleekness of the front. Of course I'm prejudiced on this matter.
 However, I think all solid color SVX's look best WITH a spoiler. When I bought my 96 Polo,I thought of removing the spoiler. I took pictures of the 96 and used Photoshop to remove the spoiler. Somehow it didn't look as sleek, but rather plain. However, adding a black roof only makes for an attractive combination.

I can't vote.....!
I love my pearl with the white wing....and black over... but the all teal.... I walked out of my friends house yesterday (he has a standard pearl under black) and just marveled at how sleek the all dark teal looked next to his .......I think that on my pearl, the white spoiler makes the difference....Just MHO......

Hey John, don't you think the Pearlie looks good with a white spoiler?
http://www.subaru-svx.net/photos/fil...mitzi/1748.jpg It does have a very interesting look.

The SVX looks awesome with tinted windows and black roof / trunk; it makes the car resemble a jet fighter! To me it looks best on the light colors(white, silver, yellow) and not as good on the darker colors.

 I still say the black over ____ looks great. It makes the car look even more "different". Also i dont like the spoiler on the SVX, looks too much like an add on. My opinion though

I still haven't seen anyone mention a black over blue combination. I have no idea what it would look like but maybe someone could photoshop one if they have some spare time?
