Carrera script color poll

I'm going to be applying a Carrera side script decal to my Guards red targa. I'm probably going to go with the usual black script, but I'm not sure it would look as good as black script does on lighter color cars (e.g. yellow or white). I'm considering a silver script instead, which might look better on a red car. I'd like other's opinions... Thanks

I'm assuming your targa bar and window trim are black. What about your wheels?

Black wheels=black script. Sort of like how the wife has to coordinate shoes and handbag...

My wheels are currently stock (black spokes with polished lip), BUT,
I'm going to get the spokes polished ... which is one of the reasons
why I'm considering silver script...

I agree with Mike. White might not work in your case, but it looks really good on guards red. A red RS replica with white Carrera script and white bumper stripes looks fantastic.

Thanks Ian,

Looks pretty good! especially with those wheels. Still debating
