They stand out more on darker paint, but I think they look right at home on your two-tone. Gives you a classic look.

Yours do look nice. I was going to change and even bought some but backed out for now. They did a nice job on them, I just couldn't pull them off to put those thin tin things, even though they're nostalgic.

The stockers are real junk!New ones are actually pretty solid .. Took about 45 minutes to remove old and install new (without any scratches)

I always liked that style of tank emblem. I wanted to do the same to my 2010 Heritage but decided to the this emblem. It has a bit more color against the black background. I removed my stock emblems and am working on installing these:


Yours look very ole skool with the two tone paint....
