Hey everyone!
Just wanted to know your thoughts/opinions on the red spoiler trim + red mirror cover.
I have the the puro white Abarth with no customizations to the exterior (yet!) and I thought about this. I do love a red accent.

So far I’m leaning more towards just keeping the red spoiler trim and foregoing the red mirror covers. But I’m not sure if it’ll look more balanced with the red mirror covers lol.

Welcome! I'd go with your instincts! Aesthetics are very personal. If it seems right/wrong to your Spidey senses...follow them! Doesn't matter what others think, honestly.

As Magoffin said above, it's all very personal. For me, on my silver Abarth, I went with a red spoiler and red tow hook cover but kept the mirrors in their original gunmetal. Your car also has the red seats and Brembos so forgoing the red mirror caps would work real well as you have "enough" red already it being the tertiary color on your car (First White, then black/gunmetal then red)...... Of course your mileage may vary.

Check out my car in my bio. I purchased my car with the red bits, but I felt without the heritage stripe the mirror caps were too much. I then purchased the carbon caps and think it looks a lot better. I am also thinking of removing the rest of the red. Point being check out the car in stages of red accents. Your car will be what it looks like without any. As posters above have said looks are all very personal I thought I liked the red then decided against it.

I put it on mine, and like it a lot. Don't want the mirrors, but might do the tow hook cover.

I have both, along with the heritage stripe. That was kind of the original look back in 2017. I still like it. I have the original mirror caps and could always go back to the non-red if I wanted to.

Some like red, some don’t.

I like red.

Your car, your choice. Do what makes you happy.

I went without. Vinyl heritage stripe, red spoiler and tow hook cover. Standard gunmetal ‘ears’. Looks good with or without. I felt that it wasn’t a must have; at the time, the chance of breaking something with the cover replacement was not worth the look (we now know it’s not as hard as it appeared to be).

Looks sharp 😁

I got my lower lip, mirrors, and rear trunk piece wrapped in red. I also have the red tow hook cover.

Hey those red accents look great. Haven’t seen a car that looks like yours!

I say go for it! It's an inexpensive mod and if you don't like it can easily be removed. Find a friend who doesn't like theirs either and pretend they are swords you can play ninjas together.
Funny how the OP says nothing of the tow hook cover but is so difficult for us to discuss the lip spoiler without mentioning it. I had a hard time finding the value in that one, light as a feather and cost how much just for the matching red? But out of the three (tow hook, spoiler and mirror caps) it gets noticed more often than the rest. As a non-enthusiast walks around the car checking it out their eyes get a lil wider when they get to the red tow hook cover.
"What's that for?!?"
Like it's a big dangerous button that's not supposed to be touched =P

I put red lip and red mirror caps on metallic grey. I then added red calipers. My Spider is perfect!

Mine is Volcano Black. I spotted a black Abarth in Italy 2017; it had red mirror caps and spoiler. Had a little scuff incident in Metz, France so got the repairers (Chaplane in Colchester: superb: Porsche Club GB recommended) to copy as lose as poss as mine is a Fiat. GO FOR IT!!!!
