Re: Opinions Please.

The white might look ok if you had some color on the bow tie and recessed parts. I'd go with the chrome over all white if it were me.

Re: Opinions Please.

The white caps need some definition as Malamute suggested. I would go for the chrome caps if you don't add any color to the white caps.
