FX4 decal suggestions/ideas?

Anyone have a white Fx4 that has switched out the FX4 decal for a slightly different one? Any ideas on what colors/combos to get? Nothing gawdy! I saw a carbon fibre"ish" looking style that would be kind of neat....However sometimes things look good in theory but don't quite work out as planned. I'm debating removing the thing and just leaving it off but I do like to advertise the FX4

Thanks!

I have a black truck with the DSG bottom. I got a set of FX4 decals that is just the outline in DSG and the black paint shows through the inside of the letters. no pics yet, but it looks MUCH cleaner.

techniques

anyone have a good technique for applying these decals? I put mine on and have bubbles underneath that I can't get out...even with using a pin hole.

Suggestions or techniques if I try this again?
Thanks,

i just put my new ones on yesterday... pretty simple to do... Watch this video and it is the same principle putting them on the truck. took me longer to take the old decals off than to put the new ones on. Just make sure you use a laminated card (I used a ****s Card). Then I took my fingers and went over each letter to make sure it was going to stick. then I let mine set for about 10-15min before I peeled off the tape. Here is the Video to show you how to do it.

I would suggest doing an outline that matches your two tone, and leaving the middle open to let your paint show through. Thats what I did, did flat black outline and clear middle. Cost me $35 for the set from Patriot Decals

Here is how mine turned out.
