Sorry OP for talking about other people's car in your thread....
Jabcat, you have to look at the whole enchilada, lol You have a partial black hood, mirrors, black wheels, black decals on the doors, blacked out side markers, after market black headlights, tail lights, black license plate, the word Calloway. So you can't say nothing is black on the back end of the car, lol. You have black on every panel / corner except the upper rear deck. Anyway, in my opinion, a black or carbon fiber ZR1 Extreme type spoiler would look awesome.

And it's funny some folks mention "factory" because my ZR1 came from the factory with carbon fiber on everything but the spoiler. I loved the carbon fiber look with the Jetstream Blue which is why I've been slowly matching my Grand Sport to a similar look (except in a convertible).

They may start to contribute at 100mph, but my taste much prefers smoother lines over better aerodynamics at speeds I would almost never experience. I suppose some of the attraction is that the car is visually ready for such speeds. I get that. Awe heck, I bought a GS, I suppose in part with similar thinking.

I absolutely love the color today, but I was luke-warm on it when I bought it. I looked for months for a GS M6 in Jetstream Blue, but to no avail. When this one popped up for sale, I figured "It's not red, it's not black, and it's not yellow, so why not!"

The Inferno Orange caught my attention, but my wife felt differently.

I've received more compliments on the color than I have on any other car I've owned, so now I am a huge fan of the color. While Corvettes will often attract comments from guys, it's the women that offer compliments on the color. And I'll take those compliments...

Yep!

Granted, those days are done for me (especially since I have a convertible), but I still wanted to capture that look from my ZR1. I made sure to install the fascia reinforcement when I did, so it's functional aero in theory. I think I'll draw the line at putting in a windowed hood and a supercharged LS9 engine, though. But that might not stop me from bolting on some type of supercharger at some point. What's holding me back is that experience with my Z06. All the problems started when I started modifying it, and it became an incessant money pit.
Anyway, I digress. Back to our regularly scheduled programming.

To my knowledge they were all black. GM did offer painted ones as an accessory. Also vendors offer these paint to match. Yours may be oem just after the fact purchase. I had my original black one painted by a local body shop

Ill be one of the few on here that prefers gloss black all around. To me it just breaks up the solid color. Especially on Arctic White. But then again, I also dont like chrome either

My preference is a color matched spoiler and the side skirts matte black to match the rest of the trim.
