I have a ink black coupe, it needs new pillers, and new badges, or just complete badges!

i thought about adding a splash of color to it by doing the breaks and getting the badges (LE) in red?

would this be too much do you think?

It's your idea of fitting LE B pillar badges when its not an LE chinny

I think the Zenda kit looks very smart on the coupe, I suppose what I'm saying is less is more smile

i quite like the idea of adding a bit of colour, as black (to me) is a bit dull - i don't think you should try to make it look like an LE but a few subtle touches wouldn't hurt. it's your car after all matey.... wink

dont listen to joe (countrycriusing) he drives a tractor.just because you fit LE badges doesnt mean your trying to make your car be one. like joes said less is more and i think the badges would be an improvment.

Did someone say 'poll?' hehe

I think the right sort of red would look good on black.
