Love it spoilerless, but not a fan of the 'taxi' look.

I don't mind the contrast of colours but I don't go for gold on silver myself, would think anthrachite would set if off... we need a PS I think

Spoilerless is a yes but not 1000% on the silver/black with gold rims, black rims would make it 100% defo

I really like the spoilerless look, I agree on the wheels though. I don't mind the black and silver combo.

It looks too unfinished for my liking, too much contrast with the wheels. But the classics do suit the spoilerless look

I can't see why you'd want a black bonnet/boot unless it was carbon. Looks a bit like you've replaced them and not painted them yet.
Love the brakes mind!

I know what your saying mate and looked in to carbon over alloy but it weighs so little less and the ££££ extra just dint add up. Always had high level spoilers but now am pushing 40 just wanted that bit of stealth look and not in your face look, even tho i do still love that look. Think now i have all this torque and power on tap i just drive it fairly sensibly, and save hooligan head for the track- bring on Donno 11th next week

Think the anthracite does look good (many thanks for pic) but gloss black will match and look better imho.
