It may sound like heresy I know but black may not always be appropriate.
It may help, for example, to look like a small bush when passing a Gatso

Unless you're taping over your numberplate, you can be as cammoed as you

black is equally effective, and considerably more stylish.

Nope. There's nothing I'm not telling you, so there isn't.
