Grille emblems are back from paint!

Got my 73/74 350 emblems back from paint today. The red one is painted the same as my body color, and the yellow is as close as I could find to factory. Now the dilemma....which one to install?

Yellow will stand out a little better to be seen, but really you can't go wrong with either!

The red looks awesome, but then the yellow pops more.

Red if you have a GMC logo in the center. Yellow if it is a bowtie.

I'm leaning toward the yellow one, or maybe I can swap them back and forth as my mood changes

Post a frontal pic of the truck with each one sitting in place so we can decide . The emblems look good. Looks like they did a good job on the paint match for the yellow .
