Rally Armor mudflaps and logo colour on Carbon Grey Mica hatchback?

[Elusivellama]

Hey all, I'm waiting on a set of Rally Armor UR mudflaps with the grey logo, but they're not due to arrive for another week at the shop I ordered them from. They DO have the mudflaps with a red logo in stock, but I originally declined them thinking that it would look a bit out of place on my car (pics in the album below):

Here is a sample photo of my car from behind, where you'd more easily notice the logo colour on the mudflaps:

What do you guys think? Would you rather see my car with Rally Armor mudflaps with the red logo, or grey logo? Here is how those mudflaps would look, in various logo colours:

Who cares what we think, it's whatever you like. But if you must say, any of them would work on your car.

Do red, go for the punch!

Sorry I should have said... "what do you guys think?" I know its whatever I like, but if I could get opinions on the majority preference, it could sway my decision towards the red logo if it 'pops' out enough. I mean, I do have some red elements on my grey car... the LED taillights are red, so are those red reflector strips on the back bumper.

It's just that these chips and scratches are really ticking me off, and I know they're almost 100% preventable if I only had these mudflaps now! lol.

I don't think it's the one you ordered but I like the darker grey text! The red would give it a nice pop and the grey would match the car.....tough choice!

As from having an issue with not enough colour on my car, the red would probably be my choice.

I like grey. But you should do what you like. Red is cool if you wanna stick out a bit.

[gabbygenier]

id say do with the grey, unless you plan on putting red accents on your car later on.

you are paying a lot for them so get what you want. and he only has a red set left, well a blue one too but thats on hold for me:D since im waiting for a grey one too for another member on OMC.

RED!!! I'll be going with red logo on my graphite mica 2010 hatch when they finally release them! Their website saya they are in the final stages of testing for the new 2010 flaps.

I think the red will give a little bit of an aggressive flare to your car.

isn't your car metropolitan grey and not carbon grey? I thought carbon grey wasn't available in 07-09

For what it's worth if I ever get a set for my black Speed3 the logo will be red.

An update... I have installed the mudflaps, this is how they look like on my car. I'm very pleased with the overall effect, not to mention that it provides excellent protection against stones thrown up from the wheels. Definitely recommend these mudflaps to anybody looking for such protection. As for the colour of my car... it is carbon grey mica, exactly as the colour code 28b says it is (and the same colour on my paint touchup pen)

Looks good... Good choice on the gray logo.

What % is your tint?

[Elusivellama]

35%... I could have gone darker to about 23%, but I often do driving at night on the highway, esp. on the weekends, so I felt that 35% would give me the best compromise between the tinted look and visibility.
