What do you guys think to a black scoop on a dark Silver S? Gonna get my bonnet painted cos someone dented and scratched it. Could get the scoop black while its off. I have the aero kit and all the grilles are abviously black and my roof & mirrors are black. Photoshop anyone??

Id do it if i had a DS car, should look good.

Here's my black scoop on Leccy Blue, with all the other black bits I've got (windows, rear light tints, indicators) I think it looks

.

Black on Silver should look

Go for it! (keep the silver one just in case)

Done it anyway

I had the same problem with same colour and I have ordered Chrome, I decided from bottom of windows any additions would be chrome and above black

Yeah, would be silly with a white roof lol

Ahh... I was gonna post you a pick of mine. Had it black on a aero DS car for the last 2 years. Now got an M7 scooby style scoop in black

That looks great... Now you need some Orciari pollen vents in black...

I see you've done it anyway, however I would have thought about fitting a carbon scoop...but is the black one your scoop repainted? If that's the case, your solution is much cheaper than mine

Yeah thats my old scoop. The painter painted was painting my bonnet anyway and he did the scoop black for free so im pleased with it

MINIdriver85 · Nov 6th, 2007, 08:36 PM

Then it's definitely cheaper than getting a carbon JCW scoop...lol

neilobe · Nov 6th, 2007, 08:44 PM

Yeah.. looks good mate..

Mini-Trainer · Nov 6th, 2007, 09:38 PM
