I saw a couple elements with the plastic cladding in body color. I prefer the gray. If its going to be obvious, then make it part of the design rather than trying to cover it up IMO.

I saw a weird creamy colored looking element with the same body colored cladding. It looked strange...not bad, but just strange. Maybe cause I'm not used to seeing that part of the body as shiny as the rest of the car.

I saw a silver one with navy blue (matte finish..just like the original grey) cladding. Looked pretty good.

Yeah the silver with dark blue is the best.


They should have made all models come with paint standard.

I've always liked this car because it reminded me of a UPS truck. And for some reason I've always wanted to try driving a UPS truck. They should make one in brown with body colored cladding- I'd buy one and take the front doors off

I'm one of the few Element backers out there. It does look pretty good with the extra paint on it.
