What Color Would You Vinyl Wrap Your 1 Series?

Ok so I want some honest opinions on what colors you guys would chose if you could vinyl wrap the exterior of your 1er.

Would you go Matte Black? Matte White? Would you go Matte at all?

Maybe something more unique like Dakar Yellow, Laguna Seca Blue or Valencia Orange?

Would you DiNoc CF your roof? Would you clear coat the CF for a "wet" look?
(read this if you don't know what I'm talking about http://www.carbonfiberfilm.com/blog/...oating-di-noc/ )

Show me what you'd do (post pix if you can find examples).


Thanks.

Sreaming yellow. That Phoenix Yellow is pretty hideous.

Yea, LMB is the more vibrant, youthful color, DSB is the classy color.

I think I'd like my car more if it had either saddle or oyster interior to contrast the darker blue.

Call me old fashioned, but why would you vinyl wrap you car? Its not a delivery truck. Just focus on keeping your paint in good condition.

change of pace I suppose. custom color that isn't permanent or as costly as painting. plus if your car is leased it can come off right before you turn it in.
