Default Need Help Deciding

I can't decide if I should put the C6 decals on my Fuel Rail Covers I just painted. Looking for opinions. My wife votes no, I am undecided. I used Photoshop to get an idea of how it would look with the decal.

Without. Very subjective though. Looks cleaner without.

Another vote for "with". Make sure the size and placement is similar to your photoshop.

I say go for it. You can remove them later if your wife still does not like the idea.
