I have an agate black and was thinking of possibly adding some red accents, pinstripes or or something similar. Not looking for anything loud just looking to add a little something tasteful to stand out a bit

. Anyone else have a black with color accents? Did the google thing with no luck... TIA

I like the lowest front trim (gloss area) in the front accented in red.

I wouldn't do the sides, just the front and back. And I would go a little darker on the red and maybe a metallic.

tweaked the blending and made the red darker...and removed the sides.

That looks better to me, but I'd still go a little darker. Maybe like an anodized aluminum color.

Mine is the same color and I've been wondering how this would look. Thanks for putting up the pics. I'm really liking it.

I like the red accent on the front. Where would you add that same accent to the back?

Totally agree that looks good! Thanks for the idea. I am also curious on the back placement as well

Some Red Accents. Even though my ST is white it should give a starting point.
