When I read the topic of this thread, the first thing that came to mind was, "UMM, no way! that'll look terrible!"

Mugatu, you have made me into a believer.

Don't think it would look very good on mine since I'm thinking of getting a black RX but looks REALLY nice if it's also got the painted calipers.

Black with stainless steel strakes.
Can see the point in having different coloured stackes but not matching.
