R50/53 dark silver / silver top? anybody??????
dark silver / silver top? does it really exist? anybody!!!
Has anybody seen, own or have pictures of a Dark silver cooper S with a silver top???? i think i have seen every color combo but this one and feel like it will look great.
If you wanted to do a bright chrome theme, I think you could get away with it by adding some silver bonnet stripes and other bright bits. . .
Probably not my first choice for a silver roof though, but I do love when people do something different. We have a new Purple Haze/Silver that looks great and will end up being one rare combo that lots of people would not choose.

but the light silver from factory would not be my choice as theeee colour ("light siver") to use!!
Ive been planning on adding a silver vinly roof with all of the checkmate exterior bits to my DS/W 04 S.
The look is good on miniusa. but i need to see the silver roof next to my car.
as far as i know, no one has ordered a DS/S car yet....

I ordered a DS/S JCW 6 spd. with Parklane interior and will take delivery in about 10 days or so. Actually it really is a great combo visually (IMO) and if you live where the heat can be somewhat oppressive, it makes sense. This Summer I was at a dealership on a hot day and walked around touching the roofs just to see if I could noticably feel a difference on different colors. The difference was unbelievable between certain colors, white of course being the coolest and black was untouchable, silver, as could be expected, MUCH cooler than a red or black or dark blue.
Getting back to the DS/S color, it matches very well with silver rims and a silver stripe on the hood (although I am not adding one) would also be good.
I ordered mine without the exterior chrome so the grill stays DS for more contrast to keep the busy look at a minimum.
Good luck on your decision!

I think that DS/S would look great...it's hard to mess up a DS no matter what you do!
My only concern would be the sunrooof, if you got it. For me, I don't like the look of the sunroof in the white or silver roofs, too much contrast for my tastes.
can wait to see pics of one!
