Question for you black optics owners -

Are the 4 rings on the bonnet and boot black as well? And is the RS badge on the boot black too? I seem to recall Amars bonnet rings been black but can't find a pic.

Cheers.

Seen a few Misano red with black rings, looks quite smart, to me anyway.

As posted chunkster, they are silver,

But I do think the black badge look is quite sexy and gives the car a more stealth look.

But I also have girls aloud greatest hits on the iPod, so my tastes are all over the place.

Agree for the black optics, but not the 4 rings. It's definitely Marmite. 9 times out of 10 when I see a nasty chaved-up Audi it has black rings on it. It's all about associations...

Disagree, black on black looks boring as hell to me and I wouldn't have mine any other way than brushed alu effect for the contrast.

Agreed.

But I'm rocking the optic front rings (hmmm, I wonder how those words will be twisted)...
