Default Show me your AIRBAG letters

Hey guys, I am debating on whether or not to add the 3D dashboard air bag letters. I did a search with not many pics. I cant decide if I wanna go with red, silver, or white and was hoping some of your pictures may help convince me. So, lets see em!

I just ordered the 3D Chrome Color Passenger air bag letters. They should be here in a few days. After installing the chrome billet radio ***** and A/C *****, I felt the chrome accents needed a little balancing so I chose to put Chrome 3D letters on the passenger side and a Chrome C5 Emblem on the steering wheel. We shall see if it looks good in a few days.

Also an old picture, but these are not the stick on letter kit. I tried them and had trouble working with them, so I painted mine. This picture is about 5 years old and they still look the same today.

It's the only pic I have right now, but I went with some Cyberdine made 3D letters in blue on my passenger air bag cover. Been there for well over a year with no sign of them coming loose. Got them from Randy (blacksedan87) at HRW Motorsports.

Just wondering what kind of paint did you use?

I am almost 100% sure it was just a small bottle of the Testors Model paint.

Mixed a couple of colors together from the hobby store, easy paint job if you take your time.

End Result: great match
