Question Pick one for me (decal colour)

Guys,

I'd like to add a little flair to my Guards Red Cayman 718. Which side decal color would you pic; white or black?

Reference pics attached. If anyone has any colour decals on a Gaurds red cayman or 911 I'd love to see them!

If you have any alternate suggestions I'm all ears.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers!

Depend on your wheels color?
Black wheels, black decal all the way!
Silver wheels I would go with silver decal, but white might work also.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I have the standard base 18"" silver wheels as the road conditions here in India are atrocious.

I found a printer in the UK who made a two color banner for me. With silver wheels and black calipers on yours, you can do the reverse of mine: white or silver stripe black letters.

My two cents: stick with black. I'm a minimalist when it comes to decals to begin with so I'd appreciate the connection with other black elements in the car (tires, trim, etc). White feels like it really pops (maybe positive or negative) and I'd be annoyed if they got dirty...

I will have to agree with you there...I think the black is a lot more subtle and less in your face..

Thanks!
