Meatball advice needed!!

I have a red/black, '05 MCS with black Pro Race 1 wheels. I want to put a set of magnetic meatballs with numbers on the doors. I want to stick with the red and black theme. Do I need to have border colors like the black bonnet stripes with the white pinstripe? Or should I just get a black ball with red numbers on them and no dorders. Would that look to plain? What I really want is a black ball with the numbers cut out, so the number would be the door showing through the black ball. But my graphics guy said that he can't do that.
Thanks,
Shawn

I'd get another graphics guy and get what you want.
It can be done. Look at the xB in my gallery. The "05"
is cut out of the circle.

I recommend taking a photo of your car and mocking up the versions you need in Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro first... If you don't have the PC skills to to a photo edit, print a few copies of your car photo and then draw the idea out on paper, then cut the meatbslls out- you can put them on the picture to get an idea for how they'll look. Nothing's better for this sort of stuff than a visual, and that's what I did before making my gumballs:



Good luck!
