The only reason to choose black for me is the smaller price tag.
I didn't realize there was a price difference.

There isn't. Red and Black are the same price.
Custom colors are supposed to be extra.

Go red

There is a small extra charge in painting it red because the extra time/cost involved in it

On Trinityautosport.com red is $25 more. I paid $125 shipped for the red one.
Apparently there is a LOT more demand for the red scoop.

I voted black, as I prefer the "Stealthy" look, but why stop at red......why not cover the damned thing in rhinestones??? I'm reasonably sure it would be available on Ebay that way!!

I think they may have tested it with rhinestones but it had a negative afftect on the pressure gradient... or was it stratiform precipitation...?
