OT: Badge colour

[Insomnia]

I've just had my coop resprayed (same colour) but am wondering what to do with the badges.

Colour is Scots Green (imagine British Racing Green) and I have new badges on their way.

My options as I see it are:

> Bonnet badge and rear badge in blue (standard)
> Bonnet badge and rear badge in black (where the blue is)
> Bonnet badge in blue, no rear badge
> Bonnet badge in black, no rear badge

I'm edging towards a factory look with blue front and rear. Just not sure if the blue goes with the green.

Anyone have any thoughts on the matter please? I've asked on the coupe forum but thought it might be an idea to gauge non-coop owners thoughts, as they are likely to be less biased.

Black badges would look real cool on the Green!

I'd go with factory standard, but black would look nicer with the green.
You must put a FIAT badge on the back of some sort - removing it suggests to many that you're ashamed of who makes your car.
That's understandable if the Coupe or FIAT were something naff, but they clearly are'nt compared to a world full of Vauxhalls, Nissans, e.t.c....

Decision made.

Sticking with factory look
