   What colour would be best for the badges to go?
   
   I am sanding them down (as i have them black atm)
   
   and re-spraying them...
   
   The paint work is a bit crap so i need to take them off and re-do them anyway...
   
   So any ideas on which colour would best suit my car??
   
   Pics of it atm....
   
   
   
   
   
   Thanks will be given as i don't know which colour would be best....
   
   The colour of the badges will also reflect colour of bucket sets/cage sometime later this year...
   
   So it is a bigish decision for me...

   it is a fair shout though...

    White always looks good on Black as it contrasts. How about a totally random colour that'd make your car stand out from the others on here, like green/pink somethin random

    Do them silver or grey Matt. White doesn't suit.

    I would say silver to match the OZ's.
    Or do each letter a different colour, no one has done that before

    tbh don't know what anthracite is, i think black and red alloys, red badges, black/red or red seats would look top.

    how about doing them a deep red, as someone has already said, but also doing one of the chevrons on the grille that colour too?
