Black MCS with non-white bonnet stripes

I am set to pick up my all black MCS in a week. I'm contemplating getting some sort of bonnet stripes, but I don't really want plain white ones. My dealer said the black bonnet stripes on the black car looks good, but does anybody have a picture? Please post pics of black MCS's with any bonnet stripes besides white. Thanks for making my decision a little bit easier.

Check out my gallery for pics of my Black MCS with DS roof, mirror caps and bonnet stripes. The photography doesn't really do it justice. It looks well trick and is very one off. The dealer had to repaint the entire car as they ruined the paintwork while putting the original viper stripes on it. I told them to do the roof and mirror caps different or take the car and stick it up their @rse! So they did.

It gets a lot of attention.

I really like the Viper stripes in DS on the Black MCS, If I was buying another MCS anytime soon I'd go for that! (Or DS with Black viper stripes..)

Often see a black MCS on the way to work with black stripes - looks as the black stripes are slightly different shade to the car, and the thin white lines stand out - sorry no photos of it though

I kinda like the idea of black with silver viper stripes.

I would also like to see a black mini with black stripes..... Would it be worth doing without the white pin stripes or would that be too subtle?
