89 Formula Decal Question

Hey all,

I have a black 89 Formula and am looking to get some new decals. Can anyone tell me if the decals are silver or gray for a black car? I am only looking to add the ones on the front bumper as all the others are in great shape and I obviously want them to match. They look like they are black with either a silver or gray lining but its too close for me to call.

Thanks for your help!

Silver is correct...

Silver was used on just about everything except Silver, White & Yellow cars.

Honestly I always thought a Black Formula with charcoal decals would look killer..
