MPE options on a color other than AW?

I really dig the look of the CF MP bits on AW- think they really transform the look of the car, but I haven't seen any pictures of the MP parts on MG or LBB (specifically: front splitter, diffusor, mirror caps, spoiler). I remember seeing one photo of an LBB in a garage with the stripes and thinking it looked awful, but that's it.

I currently have an order placed for LBB but I'm trying to figure out whether the MP parts will stand out/compliment the car like they do on AW. Same for MG.

Any thoughts/photos appreciated!

Nope, haven't seen any pics except for photoshop ones.

IMO, black/CF parts look great on AW and should also look great on LBB. For MG, black parts will look good but not CF parts. On BSM, both black/CF parts won't look good since they get lost and no contrast.

There's a few renders of the MP grilles and gills on LBB. It won't really stand out the way they do on AW because there's less contrast

I think the CF bits might look a bit hoopty on LBB, but then again I think CF looks kinda hoopty to begin with. I'll be painting my spoiler and hood for sure. The other bits I'll leave gloss black.
