Black Carrera side decals on a slate grey mettalic car? Anyone?

Any photos or photoshop for that matter.

Would it be cool or too subtle?

IMHO - slate grey cars don't need any side graphics. Just keep a nice coat of carnuba wax on it.

Cheers,
David

I think that it can be very subtle and nice if you like the Carrera script. The black on slate grey will barely show up and look great.
For what its worth!

No pictures or photoshop unfortunately, but I'll offer up my .02, I think it would look fantastic!

I think it would look great. I saw a Cayman Special recently and was really struck by the subtleness of the flat black on the gloss black. I'm trying to figure out how to do something similar to my SC without it looking trashy.
