Yes Silver for sure on your 500 Max, i just think the Black works really well against the White paint tbh and the black touches on the car, i.e tip of the whale tail etc..

No James, the gunship is perfect, i have thought about it then got rid of the thought very quickly... spoil a good car imo going BIG power 500 coolers etc etc...

Lovely motor, Pete...

It looks awesome with those rims.

Some nice pictures to, some have to much sunlight.

Try taking pictures with lighting at different angles to the sun.
