thinking of the white

I've done the all black grilles and CF mirror caps so far on mine. Definitely planning to add carbon fiber spoiler, and possibly diffuser.

Color and interior choices are always a personal choice.... I have an EBII and I have black interiors - Red was awesome but too loud for me. I did put on a 15% tint, so the black actually looks completely dark inside which I like. I liked the chrome grill look with the Blue exterior color and didnt care too much for the CF mirror caps, so left those alone. I would have gotten the color matched front/rear diffuser but I was afraid it wouldnt clear the high kerb on my driveway. I do like how it looks now!

To accentuate the Estoril Blue Metallic we optioned ours MP Black Grills, Side sill decals and CF spoiler. We'll add the aftermarket CF mirror caps. If you're interested:

I went the superman as I didn't want black interior for a change.

I don't like the black grills or carbon rear spoiler on EB. Looks great on some other colors though. I had them plus the side stripes on my previous AW 1 series coupe.

I've got the carbon mirrors as I hate the grey caps. Looks like a cheap and nasty copy of Audi's S chrome caps.

I'd like to get the grey front intake fins (Euro spec here in Oz) replaced or covered with carbon to match.

The rear diffuser has to go too, but I don't like the BMW Performance version, as I'd rather a full carbon one. Some of the carbons ones are not so nice either, so waiting for more options to be available.

I also don't like how the Performance front splitter covers the lower intakes with black, I'd rather a splitter that just goes underneath the existing intakes. Probably get these last two together as a matching pair when I find the right design.
