I quite like the contrast in colour, and a right bargain at £400 :thumbsup:

Thanks, I think it looks nice too, but stilltoying with the idea of paying 200 to get it sprayed, either black or silver to match the car. Decisions decisions :headbang:

At that price you could get it sprayed black and still have a bargain :thumbsup:

Very true Marlon.
Would black be a better look than silver do you think?

Looks quite a nice and fairly subtle contrast,possibly aided by the fact it's wet,if you know what I mean. (Might look more contrasting in bright dry,sunny weather).
If I were getting it resprayed,which I would if it were mine,I would go for matching Titanium Silver op :thumbsup:
As said,the car deserves a matching hardtop :D
Looks a nice Alpina you have got :thumbsup:

Thanks :) Any other opinions? Black, silver, or save money and keep as is?

Is that all it costs? £200 for the spray? Any updates? :)
For what it's worth black will be much easier to sell further down the line as it replicates the black soft top colour (99% of the time) so works with any colour Zed!

I'd get it sprayed to matching the car, I think it looks a bit crap as it is.
