I always love a black/CF roof on a white car... too bad mine is silver

What do you guys reckon with Black on Silver?

Thanks Andy. That's an awesome price! And Denot, I saw an Iridium 204' with pano the other day. I think black on the silver would look reeeally good.

Thanks mate. I'm still thinking either painting it black (permanent) or layer it with CF vinyl...
