You' re talking about the hash marks, right? I think gray will set it off a little better than black.

That is a gorgeous car. If I' d look a harder I could probably find some better pics of it. I could be wrong, but I thought those stripes were silver. Either way they work really well with the NBM.

As far as the spelling, don' t worry about it man, that is rather confusing.

I am pretty sure the word grey is the color and the word gray is the name. The only reason I know this is because my parents went to Ohio State University where the colors of everything are "Scarlet and GREY"

at the moment i am leaning towards graphite or grey, but if i can find a pic. of the car with black stripes or hashes i might change my mind. this is something i want to do next month when i get paid again, so i have a little time to decide, but keep the poll open and the results coming in.

thanks for voting

I like the silver.

BTW:
Grey = British spelling a.k.a. "English English"
Gray = American spelling a.k.a. "American"

Other examples include colour/color, analyse/analyze, centre/center, etc.
Another example of our superiority over the British . We steal the name of their language and change the spelling to confuse us all !!!
