Any white Model S owners done full black top like the Range Rovers?

Wondering how this would look like on a white MS with pano/glass. The white frames that run along the roof sides down to the trunk - it that could be black-wrapped (along with blackening of chrome window linings and mirror cases), I wonder how that would look.

I find the below range rover (& I think the new 2018 leaf model will have this) quite attractive. Couple that with black wheels...

would love to see if anyone has done this to their white MS?


cheers

I absolutely love this look on the Range Rover, I am actually looking for one right now for my wife. I think it would look really slick on a model S! Even on a model X it might look great

While I don't disagree with @alehbaba on range rover issues, I want this thread about how a white Model S would look with a full black top, and if anyone has done it (or at least done a graphics mock-up).

Definitely seems pretty do-able. That said, around here there are a lot of guys that do that to their Dodge Chargers. Not sure why, but I see it all the time. For that reason I'd personally steer away. Ranges are very boxy and I think that helps the look of having a split black/white setup. In addition, the lines and panel gaps help with doing that split in a very uniform way. Our cars don't have those same breaks. Just looking at the rear end, where would you make the line? Our front panel gaps between the hood, a-pillar, and door don't line up very well either. Could look wonky...

It would look great. Have a friend who just bought a new white supercharged long wheelbase range rover with the black pack. Its awesome.

Completely agree with your conclusions. There is not a natural line to follow on the S.

Just the top would work, but there is no natural break in the rear.

I saw one at a EV show in northern FL, I will look thru my photos to see if I snapped a shot of it.

agree and I struggled with the back/hatch lining area. One option could be to put a carbon fiber spoiler and color the hatch black upto the spoiler?
