Default Overlay Colors on a Pewter TA Help Me Decide...Post Pics

Im having problems picking a color for my overlays for the Doors, the rear PONTIAC on the bumper, and the bird on the front.....I thought about black or black reflective but figured it would have too much contrast with the pewter......thought about red but thought it was too much.....im really thinking hard about some charcoal grey colored ones since im getting the Evo wheels with the hyper grey in the middle......i just dont know! .....if anybody has pics of their Pewter TA with overlays post em up so i can see.

Well, I like the idea of red, maybe because it's what I chose for mine.

Sorry about the night time pic. I did my nose bird in Red White and Blue.
The rest of the car is done with black, except for the bird on the sail panel. It's a red bird with black wings.

On my WS6, the Ram Air logo on the hood, was done in gray. Needless to say it was the first thing that went bye bye... I replaced it with a black decal that is 3x the size of the original.

I have black fills (see webpage) on both front and rear, along w/polished SS Firehawk emblems that dont' show up very well. Judge for yourself

It's definitely not subtle, but I went with red on my old TA:


Good luck!
