I'm thinking of painting the lettering on the back of my bumper where it says mustang? what do you guys think would look better? For those that dont know my car is already blue.

I just want to go with whatever looks better. i was thinking black, but since my wheels are gun metal thought that color, and chrome well it looks good on the 03/04 cobras lol

Gun metal mite look good since it will be matching your rims

got the black stickers for the rear bumper on my blue vert, and you can't even see them once you're 10 feet away...

Iono. The lettering on the back of the Lx bumper is so small that all those dark colors would barely stand out from 10ft away. I would say do chrome inserts if you could find them, but I have never seen it before. The 03/04 cobras look good with it since the letters are dummy big. It could add a nice touch tho, I would say match it to the wheels so you can color coordinate.

Or completely remove it to give it an extra clean look.

none leave it alone

my vote is leave it alone, but if i were you, i'd maybe try chrome, but that might come out looking tacky. otherwise black but you prolly won't be able to see it, same for gunmetal. the fact is those letters are just to small compared to the sn95 lettering
 
Posted by Rigo5.0 (Member # 5247) on :
 
Lettering is too small. Leave it be.
 
Posted by Pure Stang (Member # 7251) on :
 
thx peeps. yea i may just leave it alone. was lookig at it today and the lettering is way to small. thx [patriot]

I wouldn't do it.. your car looks super clean as it is [patriot]
