Default Bumper inserts. What color on a true blue?

Ok so I want to get bumper inserts and I am completely unsure on what color to do on my 2002 true blue mustang. I was considering either silver/stainless steel, or black. I've seen a few true blues who have gone the silver route but i can't seem to find any with black to look at. Help me solve this dilemma haha

I love the contrast of the stainless steel on my black paint, but for you, I think the black would look awesome. They're only about $14 from american muscle, so if you don't like them you can just peel them off and you haven't wasted that much money. Have you considered the black chrome?

I think silver or stainless steel ones would look great. True Blue seems too dark of a color for black to be very noticable.

He may have a bit of a point. To me though, it's really easy to make shades of blue look too light. But, that's just me; you're the one who has to look at it every day. I think the black chrome would look really good on that shade of blue though.

I did, all the blue ones with black inserts are sonic blue; it might be too dark but the hood piece/mirrors etc are black on my car and I was thinking it might match them.

I might just do black for the hell of it, like you said their 14 bucks, and being different is always fun.

Well, even the pics don't do them justice sometimes. You won't know exactly how they'll look until you get them. But, that will give you some sort of an idea.
