Colour coded arches look weird to me, but enjoy it, have you seen this one?

Agreed! On a red car I think the black/red contrast is really nice. Colour coding it makes it look .. Well .. As you say wierd! I would go as far as to say it spoils the car (in that particular example!)

Also, again in my opinion. In the flesh seeing that coloured strip in a bright colour like red, attracts your focus. And considering it is average grade plastic I feel it lowered the tone of the interior in a full leather car (as it becomes obvious that it is a lower quality material than the seats). In grey you just dont notice it!

...Mad

thanks, i personally love the look of the colour coded arches as in the new model the plastic trim is even larger than on the old model! think again it adds to the individuality of my new JCW! and i cant bloody wait! im sure when you see it youll all change your minds :P
