Default WS6 appearance?

I have a 2001 black ws6 and i'm wanting to put overlays on the TransAm door emblems, the front bird, and in the "Pontiac" on the back of the car. I need some opinions on which color would look the best on a black car. Im thinking about red, but i need some of yalls opinions. Thanks.

1. Silver
2. White
3. Red
4. Chrome

ill jsut say 5. Blue....no1 i seen has it done and it might look real nice...you can try royal or navy blue metallic....both sound badass either way...i would say like 30th annivrsary overlay blue tho it would be one of a kidn i think

the cheapest i found them is from

www.fourthcircledesigns.com i got the whole kit with R/A 42.99+ shipping...(did priority came to like 48 bucks or 46 i 4get)
Vinyl stickers just like the rest they look awesome...

beware tho they are not the most likeable tho....you may become ipatient especially with the rear pontiac....in that case i would say by the pack...and also a MBA rear pontiac inset....handpolished....i believe $70

fits right in there....

-adam

ps i had all mine done when it was at the body shop for my one stupid mistake! lol but damn they do it great!

Silver! My wife had that on her black WS6. It's the only color I would go with. Why overlays? You can buy the silver emblems from GM and just replace the whole thing. It will look better than overlays. Trust me.

pinstripe?...ok i dont kno bout any pinstripes lol....but i believe they both will

mine matched the silver on the the stock hoodscoop RAM AIR stickers...i still have extra R/A stickers...but im given them to my fren who gonna be gettin a 'camaro

Aftermarketauto is alot more expensive...i believe the nosebird said... 25.99 while the one at fourthcircle was 9.99 with the same quality...so yeah

if all else fails you can remove the pinstripes
or
see if it matches b4 you put them on

Anything in the white/gray/silver area. Or go with silver Trans Am emblems, then put black overlays on them. It'll give you just a shadow of silver around the word.

BUT, I agree with INMYTA, I'm leaving mine black.

There is no question that chrome decals is the way to go here. I got chrome on mine which is red. I've seen chrome on a black ws6 and they look even more bad *** then on mine. Don't let anyone tell you different.

I did chrome and now I am slowly replacing it all with stainless (when I have money), I love the chrome but they peel so easy and the stainless looks like 100 dollar bills glued to your car. I have a pic in my sig of the back of my car, take a look
