Default Opinions wanted -- soft top color

As a few of you may know from my previous posts, I'm in the process of getting my soft top replaced. I've come to realize that I now have a color option available to me. Black does look nice, and it hides dirt pretty well. But I'm considering going with a different colored top.

Should I do it? Or would I be better off with black? I really like Indigo--looks closest in color to Ocean Blue Pearl (my TT's exterior color). Classic Gray seems very close to the charcoal interior parts. I may try a little photo editing to get a better sense of the result...

Go with the Indigo. I like the Ebony top on mine, but a colored top looks much better, IMHO.

Default Agree with your thought...............

the main reason I chose black as the roadster color was because I just didn't like the black soft top with other colors.

Default Get a Coupe. Perfect match of top to body........

But since you have the R, go with the Indigo.
