I would see if I could trade someone for a color matched, before I got it painted. The CR only has the black hard top, so Honda could save $$$ IMO.

don't paint it...vinyl wrap it. Maybe even 3m Carbon Weave Vinyl.

I agree - that is why I have a BB HT on my Silverstone.

I feel like your have to have a pretty aggressive setup to pull off the black top my opinion of course.......I may be a bit biased though with my sebring with a black top

I'm with Sean on this. The windshield tape influences the decision. Stock soft top is black. It doesn't look bad to have a black hard top.

Decided to go with black hard top since I have a lot of carbon and a pretty aggressive stance. Will post pictures after it's back from teh paint shop!

I'm keeping mine black. Most people I ask tend to agree it looks great.

I think having a black top almost streamlines the lines of the car more and almost makes it look lower.
