Just added the black "cyberdine" letters to the rear. And here's better pics of the halo/top paint too.

Love the halo on white coupes! Now, when are you going to upgrade to 20's?

What color letters would you guys recommend for a Torch Red Z06? I was thinking black or that semi-metallic look.

Looks awesome! Front and rear clear corners would look terrific on that setup! Especially with the lower rear fascia painted black!

I'll half-agree here. The lower rear blacked out for sure.

Consider: blacked-out all lights and markers, and black stripe on the hood to balance out the dark distribution.

Thanks for all the compliments/comments!

UniqueDoug - those 20's look good on your car. For me, next...and down the road...will be Double Din and then (hopefully) a SC

As far as appearance mods goes...the only other thing I'll be doing is replacing the front corners with a slight "mod". All the other "black outs" really aren't my preference.

Thanks again all!

My car is Arctic White, but I put on Brakelight Red. At night, these reflective letters glow from the headlights from behind to make it appear as though they are a third brake light.

IMO: black would blend nicely; white would "pop" nicely; and stainless would be a nice combination of blending with a bit of "bling".
