Woohoo-my first poll. Anyways, I'm thinking about blacking out the area around the license plate. Let me know what you think.

I saw my first silver in Ennis. For the life of of me I cannot remember whose it was. I did however install black Bob White reflective lettering on the rear bumper for the member in the hotel parking lot on day 1.
I like the silver color ALOT. Especially when trimmed in black. The only thing I thought that would add some flash, would be to black out the tail lights, AND the backup lights. Add black Bob Whites, and mod the F/R badges with a gods head emblem and paint the back ground black. Similar to mine, but in black instead of red. I would not paint any of the other trim. I would also do the wheels like my spare, S-55 grey powdercoat and polished.
(Pics of all these suggestions are in my gallery.)
Good luck with your choice; ohh if I had a silver.....one could just imagine
BTW: OEM spoiler looks great on the silver MM.

Is it for a different look, (uniqueness) than another Silver Marauder or are you planning to script something back there ?Originally Posted by Silver_'04

Just going for something different-no script. I kind of like the way the black adds some contrast to the rear. Those tinted tail lamps would tie in very nicely with a blacked out trunk.

Hey, to see what it'd actually look like, try electrical tape! Stand back and go..."coool."http://www.mercurygallery.net/mmnet/...sort/1/cat/500
2007 Honda Accord V6. Fit for a father of two. 5% tint all around.
Ut oh. I just voted and made it a 50/50 vote. (5 for, 5 against)
Here's my opinion....... by blacking it out you're simply going to make a nice Marauder look like another cheap Police Interceptor from the rear.
At this time it's 7 for and 5 against. It's your ride do whats best for you.

I believe it was Kevin (IK04). Yup,.. I was the only one there with Isopropyl Alcohol in the trunk... draw your own conclusions.Originally Posted by CRUZTAKER

yea sheriff is correct.that electrical tape , whew!! good thing it comes off
Personally, I'd leave it monochrome silver.
Maybe add black rear bumper "Marauder" inserts
If you go with a black rear panel, and presumably black under the tail lights, you'll loose the uniqueness of the silver MM.
It'll have the same treatment as Taxis and Police cars

Night Shade the taillights ( like the S55 concept )
Black it out! Black out EVERYTHING! Badges, trunk keyhole, taillights (e.g. S55 concept), windows, window trim.
