I say leave it black and let the SOM on the body speak for itself. IMO, the SOM on the sail panel is a bit overboard for an SOM car. And you have tint and the black SLP grill to be accented too. And bar none, the all black top looks clean, smooth and mean

Leave it black!!!

Doesn't the dealer replace the whole panel, rather than re-paint it? That's what I saw on the TSB.

Yes. They replace the whole sail panel. It is a 3 piece kit.

the sail panels should be pre-finished, so if you should want a different color, I don't think they'll do it without charging you.

I didn't say what color it came finished in, but I know the body shop manager so if I want it painted orange I can....



But either way I think I am going to stick with black
