Hyper Blue / Black Roof MCS Pics?

Does anyone have a Hyper Blue MCS with a black roof? I have one on order, but have been seeing lots of HB/W pics and need to re-evaluate my decision. I have about 3 days left to make changes, so if you have pictures please post them. Thanks!

I had hb/w and thought the same, after some time got sick of it and now I have hb/b MCS, painted the roof. I believe it looks more unique and classy now. I was thinking of Black roof, however came to a conclusion that black A,B,C pillars and dark tint on my car with a black roof would kill the hyper body color, now the car shines all beautiful hyper blue, and there is not many of the out there.

tough desicion, good luck

I have pics of my Hyper Blue/Black (And black bonnet stripes) MINI in my gallery.

I originally wanted white roof/stripes, but in the end decided white was too flashy for me. Black is more subtle, in my opinion, and I am happy with my color choice. :smile:

you can click on my gallery for a few pics.

I think the black roof works better w/ the Hyper Blue... the previous Indy Blue seemed to work better with white.. But that's just my opinion .. slightly biased

I changed my mind again...

Today I saw a HB/B parked next to a HB/W. I love the HB/B, but I'm going to have to change my order back to a HB/W again. It's just too sexy!

NOOOOO!!! Blasphemous!

LOL just kidding. Go with what you love, it's your MINI and that's what's best about MINIs, you can make it yours, in so many ways. Where as a Civic is a Civic is Civic... BORING!
Customize my friend, customize!

Aww.... I am rather fond of HB/B

I think it's very classy and with tint it looks quite aggressive.

Check my gallery for my hb/b MINI. Out of all the hb minis in this thread, mine is the only one with the chrome caps, something else to feast your eyes on.

CRAP! Now I'm doubting my choice again! I need to find a place where I can see a HB/W, HB/HB, and HB/B right next to eachother so that I can be certain! I love them all! Here's the impression I get so far:
HB/B: Classy. Serious with tinted windows.
HB/W: Sporty. Jumps out at you. Kinda the show-off of the bunch.
HB/HB: The self-confident beauty who doesn't even need to try for attention.

So far I think I'm going to stick with the HB/W. I've neaver had an "OH MY GOD LOOK AT ME!!!" car before
