Ace,

Go with black. Silver cf is alright, but I guess I'm just partial to seeing black carbon fiber pieces.

SRT4

Hey decided to finally register on the forums. Been lurking around for a while now...I am looking to get a C350 Sport or a Charger R/T for a daily driver so ive been reading up on the MB's

Anyway....if you are going with carbon fiber do not go with a silver c/f as it looks like someone painted over the black....it does not look good at all trust me

I have a silver SRT4 as a toy, and silver + black c/f looks amazing

I like the wheel/tire setup on your leaf blower. Really sets the silver off right. I have a lot of respect for DC bringing the SRT-4 to the masses. Great package to build from, and very surprising speed.

Silver CF would look way out of place.

I think that SRT4 looks pretty good. maybe a little lower in the rear.

to topic: are you gonna overlay the plate holder section? IMO that wouldn't look very good on the C-class.

Go black CF. "silver CF" is just aluminized fiberglass... if you're just wrapping, the only difference is really looks... but black looks better anyways.
