Red lettering ...... on a Firenze Red

Its not my house name, its my favourite position !

IMHO the point of replacing the letters is to give contrast between complementing colours, hence I went for black on white. With a red car I would have gone black aswell but might have looked at silver. Red on Red does not provide enough contrast.

+1 for contrast.

Or you could make a real statement and do everything in red. The grill, side vents, etc... Wheels...

I wouldn't like it either but it would be a statement..

They do now do a red grill too!

WRONG!!

Need to see it fitted to a Red Evoque. But it would be like a OG pure, grey on grey. Which I didn't like. The grille makes the car stand out much more when silver or black. That said the red grille does stand out, but for the wrong reasons. the red letters dont work on black for me. But as I have said before I do like them on a Firenze.

@doug - Agree, but I don't think it will work (and, after all, it was only you and me that liked the red letters on red! ) but its a bit steep to pay £180 to try for it then 'not to work'

It's gloss red too, not FR

Sorry, thought about doing that myself but now I am glad I didn't. The Silver shouts out the name for me.

If I had a Firenze, I wouldn't want the red grill as you lose the contrast.

But then again what do I know as I have a Black car with a Black grill.
