Default Blackbird stripes for NBM?

Silver metallic or flat silver? My badges, rear filler, plate cover are done in flat silver(and will be doing pontiac inserts also) from a non sponsor's website, but I'm ordering from fourthcircle, so I doubt they will match(and therefore, I will have to redo the decals I do have, so ignore that they are flat)

hmm i like silver metallic, but since you got flat silver then go with that to make it match.

I think silver metallic would look better against NBM paint.

The nice part about the charcoal is how you don't really notice it until you notice it, lol. It's subtle and it shows up right when you want it to. I love them.
