   Im kinda stuck, i have a black VTR and i really dont know what colour to do the badges and chevs, i want to T-cut the badges as that looks good, but all the pictures iv seen are of cars that are other than black. So im guessing this means its a bad idea to tcut the badges on a black car?
   
   What colour should i do them might keep the chevrons std. Ideas pleasee

   you can if you want mate, its your car, but black isnt going to show up much
   white is a popular one, but really any bright colour would look good, especially if your going to carry the theme on.

   What's the colour scheme you've got goin'?
   If your car's black and so're the rims.
   Get 'everythin' else black. Get those badges T-Cut. Lol.
   If nobody else has done it.. that means you're one of the first.
   That's what the scene leaders do. Don't be a sheep, Do your own thing. =)

   Thats good advice
   
   Thing is my cars completely standard atm i was going to go for a stealth car but i reckon to many people have them. Wanted to go for a cream theme, but thought that will probably look shit after a while.
   
   Il try not be a sheep but im really new to the scene so i dont want to fuck up and regret it, better to follow in the footsteps of the pro's lol

    black looks gash on black. then again any color on its identical self is gash for badges, just looks like you cars malformed lol
    
    i'd go white/yellow. something bright
