Thoughts on red mud flaps?

So I have a white 04 sti and I decided that I wanna get UR mud flaps. But.. I'm not sure what kind should I get! I was considering red flaps with white lettering or black flaps with red lettering. What do you guys think? Opinions?

Red w/ white is very nice and unique especially on white. I have a set of the reds on my PSM not the best color on my car but it still goes because of the taillights

Yeah man! I totally agree actually. It was either red with white or black with red. Kinda don't want it to be too flashy. Plus it depends on the rims.. and yeah it's for my white STI so I'm debating xP There's this vendor sale on NASOIC so I wanna hop on that haha

I personally don't think red flaps look good.

Red flaps would be tight, but it would need some more red accents to make it balanced.

Id say get the black flaps but have the red lettering. also you might wanna spray them with clear coat to add some protection, Ive heard the lettering rubs off after awhile so maybe the clear will help make them last alil longer.

I think red mudflaps would look sweet on your white sti. Anyways, the red stands out on the white STIs, with the brake lights and the red "STI" logo.

I dont really think it looks good with any other color, because the red flaps would take too much attention, where as the white takes up more attention.

Not really my thing but it may look good if you also paint the break calipers red.
