CF With Lapis Blue

Has anyone here seen Carbon Fiber with Lapis Blue... I am thinking about doing maybe the top of my wing, the mirrors, etc... I am worried that it might not look good against the lapis blue...

I just went through the ordering process on my Tesla Model S, and my first choice was originally the Lapis-like dark blue metallic with a carbon fiber trunklid spoiler and dark grey wheels (along the same color lines as CF). After seeing an actual car like this, it just didn't look right to me. Just a personal gut reaction to seeing it, and I'm sure others would disagree. I ended up going with black (still w/CF and grey wheels since it all meshed well with black), and the close 2nd choice was sticking with blue paint but deleting the CF piece and getting silver alloy wheels instead.

Lapis is my personal favorite Porsche color ever...sure wish they still offered it without paying the massive custom order price. Gorgeous car!!

I would think it doesn't look good. I have a Lapis Blue Boxster and saw one with Black wheels. To me it didn't look good at all. I think we have the only color that shouldn't have black accessories
