Azurite Black and carbon parts
Currently I'm starting my search for my next car and I'm kind of enamored with Azurite Black over Silverstone. My one concern is that I'm also a big fan of carbon parts (mirrors, spoiler, diffuser, etc) and I'm worried that these will essentially get lost due to the color of the car. Would love to get some opinions on this and hopefully have my assumption proven wrong!
As an aside, this site has been a wealth of information and I'm hoping to be a regular contributor in the future!

I've ordered a Azurite black M4 ZCP with added Carbon front inserts, carbon mirror, carbon spoiler, carbon diffuser and carbon tips on the MPE. Also the matte front lip and side skirts. I take delivery in 3 weeks time. Watch this space

That pretty much sums it up...it is what it is, CF against a dark color. Not much contrast.

Don't be surprised how well the carbon can show up against the AB. Yes it's black but it's also a lot more blue than people think. You can see how blue it is in this link
http://www.exclusivecarcare.co.uk/20...ew-car-detail/ There's no carbon on that car but you can easily see how it would still show a contrast against the blue in azurite.... |

I have Azurite Black, with a bunch of carbon fiber stuff (mirrors, roof, front splitters, rear diffuser, rear spoiler). It definitely blends in at night and during a cloudy day, but during a sunny day it stands out a lot more.

That looks amazing! What front lip and side skirts are those? They look matte black in one picture and gloss in another, I can't quite work it out???
