This is my same reasoning. I think it's more aggressive looking as well

Are you going to do black wheels and/or door handles?
That would look good and keep with your theme.

Looks good......... My biggest gripe is the wrinkled sides of the tops. I put some foam rubber in there and it helped a lot.

Yep, I'm about to order Chevy Cobalt black door handles and hopefully I can have money after taxes for black rims and if not, I'll just paint mine

It looks good, Agg. I'm mixed on whether it's something I'd do. (Our Sol is black). I think it looks good on the lighter paint colors, but I kind of like the "off set" of the silver on the darker colors.

No matter what the heck I think about it - it looks good on your ride and that's what's important!

Thanks! It would be cool on black if you have black Rims and door handles. I love the all blacked out look. If you have the aluminum Wheels i also think it matches pretty good with the silver trim.

I think I may just do the Carbon Fiber wrap on the pillars since my car too is all black. ASAP graphics sells a kit for the A pillar and rear B pillar. It's supposed to be easy to install.

I like the way it looks with the black surround.

Thanks rob!

The wrap seems pretty easy to install, shouldn't be too hard and would look good with the all black
