what color decals?.....

I was thinking about getting some of the bird decals that go on the sail panels and the front bumper, but which color would look best on the car?

Beautiful car! I would go with a black decal to match the mirrors and bumper trim.

I have been pondering what color to paint the spoiler and the mirrors for some time now. I believe that the car would look better if the mirrors and spoiler were painted the body color but I'm not sure.

More opinions are definitely welcomed

my opinion is you need to tighten up your e-brake
seriously though I think your car looks great as it is.
