    Do you want subtle or noticeable? The red looks cool but will definitely be more “in your face”.

    I’d go with the Red then. It will match the red Tundra lettering on the stereo. Worst case, you end buying the carbon one to replace it. They aren’t too expensive I’m assuming?

    That red looks sporty and nice. This is coming from someone who stays away from bright colors.

    More than they should be in my opinion. I have the red, and it looks ok, but I’m not in love with it. Already pulled half of it off.
