I think the black would look great too but I think it blends in more with the block and the white sets the block out. <BR/><BR/>Good luck that is a tough one!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15589892433768512248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36863576.post-36055618948372593602008-07-22T22:37:00.000-04:002008-07-22T22:37:00.000-04:00I love the block.

Not sure how much work it would be to replace the white, but I think I prefer the black.
