Default Help!!! I need a suggestion.

Ok, I recently purchased a set of tow hooks for my car. I am going to try to get my car ready for the race in Nashville at the Import Alliance meet. The rules state that you must make it visible to emergency personel of the position of your tow hooks. All of the stickers that say TOW with an arrow are red. My car is red, so what do I need to do. Do I just get my own black stickers made or....

Thanks for any help!!!

Red is a "dark" color; black does not contrast with red as well as white does.

Considering just putting a sticker or vinyl under it? Big yellow or white sticker then tow sticker on top of that. Will basically make it look like the tow sticker has a yellow or white background.

That's what I'd recommend. I'm using their blue ones on my red 944. It really stands out more than this camera-phone picture would lead you to believe, but here's an example of what it looks like...
