    Default Adding color to Pure Mag ST-S

    What do you think? The RSS I copied onto the hood would say ST-S though. I like the red Can-Am better than the white. Borrowed from the RSS design

    I'm with you - I kinda like the little dash of red on there.

    It breaks up the Gray a bit!
    If it were mine, (which it isn't), I'd look for something nice and bright to really POP! off of the background color...

    How about the STS In Yellow with black shading? Silver, Yellow and Black are on their Jet Skies a LOT!

    I like the black and red lettering best. Anybody know of a font that would work for these letters?

    I'm actually partial to the font that they used...
    Hey! Why not try the "RSS" in Red, and put a white (or much lighter silver) behind it as a shadow with a trailing tail back up the cowling?
    Kind of like a subtle flame?

    Good ideas above Show us pictures when you get it worked out. The magnesium is nice, but by itself is a lot--specially on the RT like we have.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    Oh... sorry! I read it as you were looking for a different font
    Must be another blonde, left-handed moment at this keyboard!
    None of our font choices looks likely; you'll probably need to get into some sort of graphics program to find a close match since this style font would never work for word processing...

    Another thought maybe Pete's RS Rally frunk insert and a subtle ST-S in black and red. The frunk lid looks the same as the RS

    I'm sure any good graphics guy could create it for you, I had my RSS Red label replaced with a greyish label, and the graphics guy took a photo and did some measuring and made it for me, looks like a proper BRP one hopefully you can see it in the pic attached
