Blackjack

In my opinion chrome isn't the greatest looking on my laser blue jcw. The black roof and bonnet stripes clash IMO, so I started looking at replacing them with black jack parts. I was thinking bj mirror caps, side scuttles, door handles, and rear view mirror cover. My problem is I don't want to spend upwards of $400 to get the parts and they turn out looking crappy. I also want to get either a carbon fiber cover or replacement hood scoop to remove as much chrome as possible. Any ideas on whether or not it would look good with the above parts? Also if there are any ideas as far as something I'm not thinking of that could be exchanged in color bring them out

I have Black Jack caps on my mirrors and also interior accents on my Cosmic Blue/White Countryman. I also have Black Jack A panel graphics on order. I love the look, but Cosmic Blue is MUCH darker than Laser Blue. I think it would probably work with your color. Have you considered the red/white/blue Union Jack? I'm thinking that would be a good fir with your color. Maybe someone here who has Laser Blue/Black with Black Jack can post a pic of the combination here.
