I say go with the black CF. The white would cool too, but after a while, may become played out. Black never goes out of style.

I like silver cause it's a good contrast. Especially if you have the silver panels.

Thanks everyone for your opinions. I originally wanted black but kept on going back and forth after looking at Jonny's silver in person. Silver is unique, which is why I began to consider. But I agree with ecr527 that silver might become played out. Plus on this list of summer mods is the Ventross trunk, which is black cf. Will post pics when the steering wheel arrives.

I got the black Carbon Fiber steering wheel with real carbon fiber dash kit in a black on black car. White looks cheap to me. I'll try tp post a pic for you.
