Bumper Decals - Which Color?


I'm looking into getting the bumper "MUSTANG" decal inserts. My 99's black and I'm not sure which color would look best and I've had a hard time finding examples out on the road. I was thinking silver since it might go with the rims. I definitely don't want any of the chrome inserts. what colors might u recommend? I tried photoshopping in different colors until I realized i suck at that.

also... what would be a good place to find these? i didn't see any on bobwhitedecals.com.

here's some pics of the car to get a better feel for what colors might work.

thanks

sorry, I should have said that better. By chrome I meant stainless. I'm not sure if it would fit the car well. but now that i think about it i might give them some more thought.

I'd say the stainless as well, would (almost) match your wheels.

i orderd some for mine on ebay...they are silver vinyl..a whole 8 bucks for them. im not really worried about them lasting long term because i need to get the bumper repainted down the road anyway..probably just as well do the whole car over...get the little nicks and chips taken care of. black doesnt hide a damn thing lol.

Get black reflective decals. That way you can keep the look of your car, but it shows up at night. :wink

Black stangs can look good with grey if they have matching racing stripes. They can also look good with black reflective decals. They look awesome at night.

I'm sorry what pic are you looking at? You can't see the difference between your vinyl decal and reall SS? Are you serious? Ones grey. (That would be yours) and one looks like mirrors or chrome.
