I'm slightly biased, but Candy White just looks amazing. My favourite colour!

Here is a quick snap, first day it was picked up. Great drive in Mt Dandenong.

Mods will be coming soon too. I'd like to remember what it looks like stock!

lunchbox, LOVE your plates! I'm so undecided, don't know if I should go black BG or white BG...

Go white. I borrowed a plate at the dealer and put it up against it. It was black BG with white letters amd it looked out of place.
Im going to paint the black border white so it looks like the letters/numbers are just painted on.

LOL! I was thinking of doing the same thing with the border too. Subtle, yet classy!

I think I will follow suite, looks wayyyyy too good! Thanks!

I was thinking of having the red with white BG but went for the opposite. Don't know why but the white was a different tint and looked weird. White with black BG is safe option.

So Bassik you have the Red BG with white writing? Any piccies?

That is exactly my worry, the BG being a shade off. lunchboxes looks great, but could just be the lighting?

I'm still tempted, might pull some old plates and try them on (black BG, white text).

Cheers guys!

you will never match the color perfect. the black BG plates here are way darker and glossier then any of the black on the car. so white was the closer option. red BG with white would go. the car has only a splash of red that will be to far from the plates to tell if the shade is of. i though about the euro plates to fill the big gaps up but there $600 here and you dont get to choose the letters.
