I would replace all of the red exterior trim with matte black trim. The wheels, grille surround, roof, mirrors, and spoiler would all be super simple since they are actually separate components that can easily be repainted individually. The only hanging point would be the side tape stripes, and I already discussed that with my preferred paint and body guy who said that having these replicated in matte black and removing the originals should be no big deal.
A friend has one. Yep, I am not too crazy about the side striping either but I don't mind it in the silver Laguna Seca. They are easy enough to remove though. I tell you, I am not a straight line kind of car guy, I love roads with many bends and I have owned and driven many cars at Laguna Seca and weekend fun around Santa Monica mountains and I rate the Laguna Seca among the top of best handling cars I have sampled. The Lotus Elise Exige is my top pick.
