Re: SRD Deck Lid Colour Poll
for me - I would go body colour ie Titanium- to me it looks more integrated though one can argue that the soft top is black. 2 tone cars are really a retro look- MX5's were pretty much stuck with that look with a vinyl roof though all the RHT's are now body colour. However if you want to retain a better resale for the item then black is a better option.

Re: SRD Deck Lid Colour Poll
I think colour matched might look a bit too much and make the car lose it slim lines with what looks like a camel hump. But i also think gloss black is a bit out there too! Personally i'd have it matt or satin black and match it with the A pillars.
So i haven't voted

Unequivocally titanium. When the rear deck lid is same colour as the car it looks integrated. The contrast of colours only highlights
the plastic look of the deck lid. My rear deck lid was repainted for less than $200.

Re: SRD Deck Lid Colour Poll
Well results are in
26% Black
74% Titanium
So guess what?
It is staying Black.
I am not convinced, so spending $ to get it pro sprayed, trying to match the Ti is just not worth it.

If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.
