Re: which one ?
sometimes you have to fix ugly factory things. emblems that are yellow or red or both look out of place on certain color trucks. for instance yellow & red crew emblems on a woodland green truck (after fixing). go black anti-gov

The black looks cool. It's just different enough that no one but a truck enthusiast will even notice.
