News to me, though I suspect it is more than possible to have a silver carbon S4.

silver surface carbon is available, but i don't know where from

Yokomo did a touring car made from it, the SD SSG (silver surface graphite) which i think may still be listed.

To be honest it looks great when it's new, but looks tatty and dirty really quickly.

3 Racing use it for their carbon Dark Impact chassis. I don't like it personally.

First time I saw it on the Yokomo cars - I thought WOW! now I think it looks tacky. I am similarly dislike the diagonal carbon fibre you see. I like this normal interwoven stuff.
