Default What are your thoughts on painting a Series One Black?

Most people on here know my car and the spec.
It's not exactly standard by any means.
Just a thought that got mentioned to me by a friend and had me thinking.
Doesn't mean I am going to do it though

I think if you go for black you need to get the decals done in a different colour to set them off properly.

been thinking about this myself after a hit a dog the other night in my s1 which smashed the front valance,tow eye cover and ripped off an arch so need the front end sprayed then thought what the hell spray the whole thing... then a mate said black.

black realy suits the mk3 shape, however when looking at any mk3 black car u auto matically think xr3i-rs1600i and not s1.

persoanlly im looking at another colur,but will proably get it done in white in all honesty however i did see a photoshoped s1 in moonstone and that looked realy nice
