Thanks folks! Wanted something a little (but not a lot) different with the stripes. Was really considering Martini Racing Stripes up the middle (using the CB color as the dark blue in that color scheme) but decided on something a little less complicated. Eeither way, really happy with how it turned out. My Clubman was Chili Red with black bonnet stripes - loved it. Gotta have some sort of stripes, in my opinion.

Took some better (albeit not great) pics:

@rcsmrk - Those look great. I ordered my Cosmic Blue CMS sans stripes. I don't think the factory red would look good, afraid the white will be too stark of a contrast, and the black won't show at all. Aesthetic Creations did a great job on my '09 CMS last year at the dragon so I figure I'll see what he comes up with and try to get something a little different.

Thanks! I get all kinds of compliments regarding the silver & chrome combination. I checked out Aesthetic Creations just now - cool stuff! I saw black stripes on a CB CMS at a dealer but only noticed them when I was standing right next to the bonnet. Cool enough for those who like the subtlety but for me personal preference is that the stripes be noticed. Good luck with your choices and can't wait to see pics!

I'd like to see a CB/CB with white sport stripes. Guess I'll wait until ours come in. We ordered one (the All-4) CB/CB with white sport stripes and the other one (mine) CB/CB sans stripes.

My Cosmic Blue CMS was completed yesterday and released to carrier. Our Cosmic Blue ALL4 CMS is scheduled for completion tomorrow. Two more CB will soon be backstroking to the USA.

If you ever take a road trip that brings you near San Francisco, we'll do a shoot.

Quick night shot on way out of store last night. (Need to start carrying something better than iPhone around to steal quick shots when the lighting is good...)
