painted black :mad: tho maybe not on a blue one,iv always liked the idea of a silver/grey cab with a painted black hard top,like some late mk2 mr2s and special edition mk1 audi TTs style,tho in practice it might not look as good as i think :o:

I've got original on my Macau Cab. Probably not use it this winter due to garage, so this is the only photo I could find.
