I think BRG with yellow lettering would look very nice on your car. I'm painting little bits on my car as I have the time. Since its Arctic Silver I'm going with black with silver letters. My car will be all black and silver outside (got the black and silver badges all around) and BRG and yellow inside the engine bay.

I've thought about it, but haven't done it yet. Maybe this winter. I would love to see your photos if you do it. I was leaning toward yellow with green lettering.

Not really what you want, but a cool picture: calipers painted aluminum with green lettering on a green car.
