Default maybe doin blackbird stripes....

i got a black TA with Black ZR-1's...

do u guys think it'd look good with charcoal blackbird stripes and CETA...

or do u think i should accent the lip on my wheels and go with silver stripes and CETA...those modes are defently in the near future just trying to figure out what colors...i want charcoal just afraid it will clash with the black wheels with the polished lip

The Charcoal is very dark. I am actually waiting on a response from Fourth Circle about seeing some examples of Charcoal Metallic and Pewter Metallic (also very dark) on a black WS6.

I have blackbird stripes on my black ta. They are black during the day and if you shine a flashlight on them at night they seem to reflect some type of bronze. It is different but I like it.

Go with charcoal if you have/getting gunmetal wheels. It'll compliment them nicely.

Sorry but maybe you forgot to say, do you have the Charcoal stripes? If so we would like a good hood shot.

Sorry, forgot, mine are reflective black, which makes them only show up when night starts to fall.
