Help me pick:





EDIT: Here is a better pic of the Black/Black:


And I suppose I should remember that I have Black/Chrome ovals:




I'm leaning toward B (Gunmetal/Black), but am not sure if they'll "disappear" with my DSG exterior.

I'm liking emblem D on your DSG. I think it'll go well with it.

Sort of. They have no model tag, but are flat on the back,so they'll work on the fenders.

Okay good! I didn't want you to make the same mistake I did with the tailgate badges gonna look good!! Btw- the center's just clip in so you could remove and paint them to match if you wanted. Very easy.

Been there, done that, and re-sold them on eBay.

Hard to say if these are one piece or two, as they're knockoffs, but for only $10 apiece, I think it's worth the gamble.

I voted "B" but would rather the colours reversed. Black on the outside and gunmetal on the inside. This would help with the colour being a bit off. Otherwise you'll see the difference in gray's right away and that would be a deal breaker.

I'm beginning to lean this way. If the "gunmetal" was more of a black chrome, there'd almost be no question, but hard to say if that color would be a mismatch as Johnny mentioned.

If I had an FX4 or had (or wanted) some red accents on the truck, this would be my hands-down first choice.
