Black tips on black car??

Hi guys

Just got an original black M2 and I have just taken the tips off to polish them up but I'm not sure what I want to do with them.

Has anyone gone gloss black tips on a black car? I sort of want them to stand out and I certainly don't want them to just disappear?

Maybe carbon is the option

You can look at a Black M2C for the look to see if you like it. M2C has black tips standard.

You can't go wrong with black tips but if you want them to stand out i recommend silver

Yeah I like the look of the brushed stainless steel ones. The ones that have a thin wall if that makes sense instead of the rounded edges that chrome ones come with

Here's how mine looks, these are the polished black tips from IND (also put blacked out M2 badge to complete the look)
